Just curious for future refence...
Is it possible to keep a clown trigger, niger, and huma huma in a 125? I was just toying with the idea of starting an aggressive tank to go along with the reef tank. My first pick would be the clown trigger so if that trio doesnt work together what would you add along with the clown trigger?

well the cloun and picasso (humu humu) would be fine but i would think about subing the niger with a different species...

why so? do you think the niger would be too passive compared to the other 2?

Nigers can usually hold their own in my opinion. If the Clown chooses to kill any fish, he'll do so equally.
I'd be more concerned with the clown trigger killing.
Use caution, I've seen some MEAN clown triggers, not saying there aren't more passive specimens out there.

I think you'll be fine. Just add the clown trigger last, and buying smaller sized specimens will help as well.

u might want to try to get a bigger Niger than clown and humu humu that way the clown probly won't go after it. also make sure the clown is the smallest so it won't go after the more passive species that are bigger than it.

Your best bet would be to start off with small specimens from the beginning so that they would form their own hierarchy before they turn super aggressive later on.
