HELP trigger with hawaiian spotted puffer okay of no!!

[i usetablesalt]

I have a niger trigger fish he's bold but he doesn't buy anyone if no one messes with him. I all go have 1 yellow line maroon clown, a yellow tail damsel, and a Beau Gregory Damsel. I have just ordered a hawaiian spotted puffer do you think he'll be okay?
The Niger Triggerfish is about 3-4"
PLEASE REPLY ASAP THE ORDER IS COMING SOON!!!!

I have a 5" niger trigger in a 180 gal. and he's very territorial. I also have a have a 4" Hawaiian bluespotted puffer in a 75 gal. Judging by their personalities, I wouldn't recommend it. Hopefully the puffer will come in at a decent size so the trigger doesn't pick on him but I've seen them shipped around 1". Since you've already made the order, all you can do is hope for the best and take one out if things get out of hand.
Not to flame you, but you can avoid situations like this if you do a little research on a fish before you buy it. Just ask on these boards, the people here are very helpfull.

Yeah but the funny thing is that 1 have like a 1" yellow striped maroon clownfish and the trigger has never niped him instead of when he was first introduced!!!

dont have much experience w/ either but i can give an opinion, since nigers r usually the less aggressive types u have a chance that he may not pick on the puffer, now if u had a picasso or clown that would be bad bad bad

I've had a clown triger, a huma triger, and an undulated triger all together with a blue spotted puffer. They never bothered eachother. all the triger's were about 4" and the puffer was only half their size.
