Queen Trigger

[lsky5101982]

We really want to get a Queen Trigger for out 180 FO. How likely is this fish to get along with the other inhabitants we have planned.

1 Porcubine Puffer
1 Niger Trigger
1 Humu Humu
1 Dog Faced Puffer
2 Clownfish (either Maroon or Tomato)
1 Grouper (Panther, Blue, or Minnatus)

other possibles are

1 or 2 Large Angels (Imperator, Queen, ect)

wouldnt think the clownfish would survive long at all

If i leave the Clowns out and put them in a different tank does the setup look ok?

 

[mr.reef24]

most likely would kill the humu-humu trigger and the niger trigger

You would eventually need a much larger tank for the queen trigger.

I would probably stay away from the Queen idea..

There is a chance you could lose all your fish to the queen trigger.

Your tank already sounds very well stocked and if your fish are all full grown your already overstocked. Queen angel would outgrow your tank. Queen trigger would also outgrow your tank. The panther grouper will outgrow your tank alone.

Sounds to me like you should save your money and buy a bigger tank!!

All triggers will do well together while they are small (2-3"). From my experience they hit a point in maturity when they seem to attack any and everything. By the time they reach around 5-6" they will have to be kept alone, unless you have a tank of several hundreds gallons. The queen is a gorgeous fish though, reaches around 20", and is worthy of a species tank. HTH

My 12" queen has yet to attack any of my other triggers:
9" clown
8" titan
5" blueline
4" undulated
4" niger

^^ check back with us in a year or less. That is literally a disaster waiting to happen unless you have a 1k gallon aquarium.
