niger trigger in reef tank

[bueller]

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to know if anyone has had good luck with a niger trigger in their reef tanks. I just put one in mine [about 2 inch in size ]. A very reliable reef guy from my local reef shop said it would be fine. but after doing some reading everyone seems to say it's a no..no. He's in there with an emperor tang, sailfin tang, a couple of blennie's, pair of mated maroon clown's. and bunch of corals [LPS,Softie's]

Thanks
Bueller

I Think That House Had One

I Had One Once And It Was Fine For A While But He Became More Agressive As Time Passed With The Other Fish. Specially With New Fish. But He Never Picked At Corals. They Can Be Fine But After A While There Is A Good Chance Of Them Turning And Become Coral Pickers. But Thats Possible With A Lot Of Different Fish
