clown and huma huma triggers

[edfire4]

I have seen in some triggers bios that they should be kept in a species tank. Does that mean they should be kept with their own kind or be kept by themselves?
I'd like to to get a clown trigger and a huma huma trigger, could they co-exist in a 160 gallon if I bought them both when they are small?

No absolutes here. You probably would be okay while the fish were small. Many triggers don't become overly aggressive until they mature and put some size on. Some are fairly tolerant of other large fish. Others get nasty and throw their weight/attitudes around. Don't be discouraged from trying it, but be prepared for the potential outcome.

I agree, should work. Good luck. :happyfish
