< Actually, yes- IMO. The Niger Trigger The Rhinecanthus species are better suited for situations where you'd want to house more than one. Another possibility would be the Xanthichthys species, such as the "Crosshatch" Trigger, which are much better choices. Please note that these guys still get quite large, and a larger tank, good husbandry, and lots of food is still a requirement.> I guess my real question is if you have the accommodations as you stated in the earlier post (500 to 700 gallon tank) and you were really interested in a predator tank, what would be your lowest risk combination — with at least one of the fish being a Trigger??? Thanks
