I assume you traded the triggers so that you can get community fish.
I have a niger in my tank with 8 other community fish and no problems. The niger is quite a non-aggressive trigger that many people keep with community fish, they dont bother corals either. Only thing is if you wanted to keep inverts, the niger might eat em. I have had two cleaner shrimp in my tank for quite a while and my niger never bothers them.
The humu is not quite as docile as the niger, but several people on this board have had success with keeping them with community fish. The humus will eat corals, however.
Hopefully you did not listen to the reccomendations of some of the more uninformed people who think that triggers can't be kept with community fish. There are triggers like this such as queens, undulated, and clowns. But nigers, blue throats, pink tails, crosshatchs, and sargassums are fine with community fish (although soeme may not be with inverts). Some like the humu humu are in the middle and can end up being either way.
