nate.hobart.1 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Yes.Blue throat triggers, sargassum triggers (aka red tail triggers) and the lesser seen and far more expensive crosshatch and gold back triggers are all reef safe.Of course all fish have personalities and triggers in general have lots - so... some individuals might go 'bad'. However from my experience they are wonderful and docile.Additionally, Niger triggers and Pink Tail triggers are also considered by some to be reef safe. I personally have a rather large Niger trigger in my mixed reef and he's boisterous but has never harmed anything as far as I can tell. I got him when he was about the size of a half dollar piece- and I feed him well- so he pretty much spends his time digging in his cave in the sand and swimming around the algae clip.Honestly triggers have the most personality of any aquarium fish I've owned. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
