What's a territorial and aggressive triggerfish? And at what size gal tanks can you specify, do they need?

So far I'm interested in starting sw with the basics of a small tank and experimental fish to see if I can raise them successfully, and want to work my way up to a single specie trigger tank for one trigger, if it requires one for itself, if not then maybe a few.

So what are these trigger's names? I remember queen trigger as one of them.
 
Most triggers are aggressive, and a single species tank is best, or at least keep them with fish of similar size or larger.
 
How about picasso triggers, aggressive too correct? I really like its patterns, they're really beautiful.:D

I have three triggers right now a Niger,Blue troat ,and Undulated.The niger is in my 150 with my blue throat and others however the Undulated is in his own tank due to reputation alone.
 
I've never had a titan, but I have had about 12 undulates. every one of them has gone back to the pet store. They're usually good for 2-3 months before they start systematically killing off their tankmates. For some reason, I keep buying them. They're pretty, and I'm an idiot. My last one went back to the LFS last week after killing the 8" clown trigger my wife got me for christmas followed by a 6" blue line then my beautiful miniatus grouper who he ate a good portion of. This all occurred in 3 days after he was in the tank for 3 months. I should also metion that he was not even 4 inches, and I bought him and the blue line together from the same tank in the LFS. The blue line was the more aggressive one until I added the 8" clown.
If a titan is more aggressive than that, Then who would even want one. There are much cooler looking triggers than the titan.
