Anyone done a sucessful tank with the above captioned?

If so, how large was the tank? What type of filtration?

How large did they grow? How well did it work?
 
I kept the 3 together in a 110 for about a year. It was a volitan lion, snowflake eel and huma trigger. Although I was succesful for a year I understand the the huma becomes more belligerent as it gets older. I don't know what would have happened if I'd kept the huma longer. You may be more succesful with a blue throat trigger. JMO, YMMV
 
I kept a Volitan and a Snowflake with a Tusk in a 75g for about 1 yr before moving them to a 240g.

Volitan will outgrow a 75g within 1.5 yrs.

Mixed bag wit triggers, I've heard they like to nip Lion fins and the two I tried (Niger, Black Hawaiian) did not like eels and kept pushing them bag in the rocks.

Lion + Eel = ok
Trigger + Lion/Eel = ??? Risky...they have chew teeth for a reason.
 
I have a lion, niger trig, clown trig and tesselata all doing fine for a while now and i plan on gettin a brazilian dragon moray.
 
Right now in my bigger salt tank I have a niger trigger, a snowflake moray, a grouper and a clarkii clown. They all get along nicely.
