Humu Picasso Triggerfish

[dallen]

I have recently been put incarge of our company's Salt water tanks. I have a 55 gallon tank with a Humu Picasso Triggershif and 2 black/shite striped Damsel fish. I am told that the Trigger fish will eat any snails, crabs, coral that I put in with them. I am anxious to know what I can add to this tank so it will look great and enable me to keep the Trigger. Any suggestions? Thanks

u r gonna need a bigger tank and yes it will eat inverts. You should trade it in and get a new fish. Maybe a Lionfish? A dwarf angel would also be nice.

Thanks for the input. So if i just make this a fish tank adding compatible fish, along with plastic plants would that work? The Striped Damselfish and the Emperor Angel seem to be okay with the trigger. Ohowever the Angel is either chaning color (puberty to adult) or it has head & lateral line ersosion. How do I tell the difference?
