Clown Trigger & Volitan Lion...

[hocky98]

I am interested in featuring a dwarf volitan and clown trigger in my 75 gallon tank. What other critters could I put with them that they will not eat or pick on? I'd like a snowflake eel and maybe some clowns, starfish, etc. How about a cleaning crew?

Having a clown trigger pretty much rules out everything else on your list. Not only will this fish grow much too large for your tank, (picture a cross between a pitbull and a football), it will likely kill everything else in the tank at some point. Clean up crew? You're it The dwarf lion, eel and maybe a wrasse or one of the large clown species would work.

hum.. u got good pick on fishes but if u r to get a eel.. u better have a perdy sealed tank... as in no where he can jump out of or swim into.. i know peeps who had eel w/ open top canapy thats 12'' tal and a 7'' eel manage to get out of the tank and die on the floor....

Wow, that Trigger rules out EVERYTHING you listed. if you want to keep the trigger, I would reccomend it be kept alone. PLEASE don't buy the trigger and the Lion and place them in the tank together. You will end up with a horrible mess and the horrible emphasising whats going to happen to the Lion.
