New Majestic Angel addition going in with humma,wrasse, and GS clown

[jabari]

I was always told that the bigger angels could hold their own "usually" with the more moderately mannered triggers like the humma humma and Nigers....would i have any trouble in you guys opinion now or in the future...with ne of the other fishes. They are in a 125g. They are all juveniles with the exception of the Red Sea Lunar who's like 7 or so inches but he is always n hiding

I really don't consider Huma & Niger triggers as 'moderately mannered" (maybe when small); but your fish should be OK. As is always the case with fish like this; time could change everything. This mix will be fairly crowded in a 125 when they're all grown. I assume the Majestic is a juvi also? Adult large Angels are usually tough to acclimate. BTW, I think a majestic Angel is a good choice (I always called them Blue Girdled Angels); they are easier to keep and stay a bit smaller than most Angels in this group. They aren't as popular as they should be, IMO. If you can find one from the Maldives or Solomon Islands, I think you'd have better luck than with an Indo-pacific fish; but you'd probably spend more too.

IMO, it'll be fine. the large angels can defend themselfs quite well, you've seen the size of their head, lols, against a 7" trigger i doubt the angel would win, but the chances of them actually fighting is small considering it is a 6' long tank. The majestic angel is a beautiful angel, and i've heard that it can be one of the most aggresive, (well not aggressive, but the 'hardest' lols) and can stand its ground very well. it is a slow growing angel.
but it is recommended you buy a juvi of these. i dont know why but i read on some website its very recommended that you buy a juvi.
