what size tank do you have with the other fish in? since he is so small i would suggest putting him in something like a 20 gallon for grow out. im not real sure of triggers growth rates. but i tihnk if you put him in your tank the grouper might make a meal out of him. is the strawberry grouper a miniatus or cherry grouper? never heard of a strawberry. feed him a wide variety of foods to speed his growth too. feed chopped meaty foods(clams, mussels, silversides, squid, etc.), some flake(since he is so small he will probably eat it), some frozen foods(krill, shrimp, etc.) do you trust your lfs? maybe you could give them your trigger for a while to hold until he gets big enough to go to your tank. that is if you trust them to take good care of him. later, bo
oh yeah 2 groupers in a tank usually dont to to well together unless it is a big tank. some will go together if they are as different looking from one another as possible. the panther is a more mild grouper while the strawberry/miniatus is much more agressive. you might be ok with them since they are both rater small rite now.
