I just order one, I can't wait till it arrives on thursday.
How big is yours? The one I order should be around 3 to 4 inch.
From what I hear yes they eat snails , shrimps, basically everything except, fish that can't fit in the there mouth.
First time I heard of clown triggers getting ich. My buddy had a tank full of ich on his medium size tangs and angels. This 2 inch clown trigger had nothing, breathing, eating, swimming. Just a normal day.
His clown trigger is around 5 to 6 inch now.
This is a serious hardy fish. Basically...

Today I stop by my LFS and saw a juvi emperor (3 inch) instead of the usual blue with white stripes above his mouth. He has a white circle and a white dot over his move (front view) natural marking. Is he a special kind of emperor?

I love to see a pic of the tank.

kjr_trig, I choose the lunar for the exact same reason. I think I will need a cover though just in case.

Hi
I am very curious are these fish (wrasse) jumpers, I read that they can jump. But my LFS has a few very big ones with no cover and the owner tells they never jump. The wrasse are very beautiful house with a adult emperor.
