Still looking for a Titan Triggerfish...

[Anonymous]

I know it's off-topic, but if any of you go into your LFS and happen to see one of these bad-boys, I'm still looking for one. Ideally, I'd like it to be around 3-4".

Thanks in advance if anyone turns one up.

Peace,

Chip

Marillion-
Just a caution about the titan if you weren't already aware. They have a nasty disposition, and top out at 2.5 feet. Please be sure you can provide the proper living space for one if you purchase one.

Titan triggerfish? What is the species name please? I've seen or kept just about everything, but I've never heard that name before.

I had read over three feet, but that's neither here nor there. Yeah, I've tried to dredge up every scrap of info I can on this fish, and the info seems to be as rare as the fish itself. If he's around 4", he'll go into a 125. If he's closer to a foot, he'll be in a 220 at the lfs, in their show tank with not much else. He's the store mascot, if I can find one.

Here's a cool pic of one comin' at ya!

I call it the 'Eddie Bauer' triggerfish...

Peace,

Chip

marinelife designs in florida had titans on their list, but their wholesale pricing is pretty out there.. dunno if the store could find enough stuff worth buying to get it.
