I am looking into getting a=nother tank and i love this fish. Anyone have one? Do they have to be kept alone?

If you have a giant tank you could, the level of aggression really depends on the individual fish. But I'd say in many cases you'd need to have a species tank. BTW can you get any further north in texas than perryton?

I don't Have one but I consider it a species-only fish, only way I would try it with other fish is with other very agressive triggers and large groupers and/or eels even then I would consider it iffy

I have a friend who had a 300 with several triggers, a puffer and some tangs. The clown went in, then beat everyone up and he took the little devil out. And that was in a 300. It definately think that he might be a clown and a couple of eels and a few black mollies 150 or something. Be a cool and mean tank!
Where do you get your fish, I've been up there and there is NOTHING for miles unless you count some agg and oil

If you have the $$ what I'd do is get a 150 or so set up a simple sump, put a couple of eels a mean old wrasse and a clown in there, put about 10 black mollies in the sump and use their kids for live food. It is a really impressive setup if you've ever seen something like that.
