I'll see if he eats tomorrow but he is interested in food so maybe he doesn't like what there feeding him

Could it also be that in the 9 days they've had himhe's been in atleast 3 different tanks?

Also my lfs has Achilles tang they've had him for a little over a week he got icy pretty bad but now he looks really good the only thing is he might not be eating they tried feeding but he just kept spitting it out could it be he didn't like the food? He wasn't hungry at that time? Or what he is...

Mine gets mad if I don't feed him when hungry. He knows I pet him right before dinner and if I don't give him the food after a minute or two he'll bite me.

Mine doesn't seem to care about anyone untill there's food in the water. Well that's good I thought they grew up and killed other fish for fun. I feed him 3 times a day and he still begs for food. I know mine loves getting his nose rubbed

Yep he's by far one of the best fish I've ever kept he's got such amazing personality and he honestly very well behaved I don't know if he's still to small to be the killer everyone says triggers are or what

I have a Picasso trigger now but I swear he's more dog than fish.

No problem

A Niger trigger did that wow? I thought they were supposed to be nice that's crazy

True you should get what you want

I'd say tank size is only half of what you need to consider you'll also need really good filtration since a decent sized shark can make an ammonia spike all on it's own. You could also get a custom built shallow 125gallon tank.

Its true they're active but I think if you aquascape your live rock to have plenty of open room a 8'x2' would work I have a friend that has one in a 8'x2' he's had him for 3 years but yes a 8'x3' would be ideal

Just ask them they should be able to get ahold of one for you. Do you know what kind of fish it is that likes to live in beer bottles.

You could probably get away with a coral or marbled catshark for a few years in a 125 but other people will say you need bigger while others will say even the 90 would be good since those sharks are found in reef caves and and they don't mind cramped spaces.

True but I'm not sure what your lfs might want just to order it. I'm also curious what size is your next tank going to be?

You could also order from an online store

You should be able to ask them to order you one

No problem and I personally think the coral and marbled catsharks look better than the bamboo and banded sharks

I've seen people keep them in reef tanks with small fish but they are sharks so if they're hungry they might go after the small guys. It's not so much that the shark will hurt the trigger it's that the trigger might hurt the shark they sometimes peck there eyes out and nip fins but I think that...

Yup you'd probably need like a 8-10'x4' tank just to watch him swim for like 2 hours a day at 3am the two sharks I just mentioned are actually some of the more active carpet sharks
