I have a 125 setup with about 100-110lbs. live rock. I have a lionfish(6in), porc. puffer(6in), panda puffer(6in), niger trigger that I am getting rid of soon, bursa trigger(4 in), two small damsels that I hate, magnificant foxface(6in). I would like to get a juvinile clown trigger when the niger is gone and i was wondering if this would work out do to aggreseviness and also tank size. My fish now get along very well and I really never have any problems with them. Thanks in advance for your help.

They may get along ok. But when they get much much bigger, your going to have room problems.

Thanks for the tip, I figured that I would be having space problems soon anyways so should I take out some of my rocks or does this not really affect the space of the tank and it's fish?

what there trying to say is that you'll need to upgrade later not take the rocks out all of those will need about a 200 gallon fish tank and the clown trigger MIGHT kill all of your fish

I will be getting rid of my niger trigger soon to a guy that works at my LFS. I will be looking to get a juvi clown trigger to go in his place, hopefully everything will work out.

Well, I am getting rid of my niger trigger and I hope the damsels get eaten cause I cant catch them. What else would you guys cut back on to lighten the load in the tank?

are you going to upgrade though because all of those are GOING TO NEED A 200 GALLON OR MORE :happyfish and most of the fish are going to get abot to a 1-1 and a half so i suggest and every body else is suggesting that you need a bigger tank a.s.a.p
