Hi everyone,

This place is a wealth of info. I have been reading my butt off, but I still have a question. I setup my first SW 30g FO last year to get the feel for the hobby.
I am just using a hang on mechanical filter, and recently added a hang on protien skimmer.
40lbs. of lr.
1- Spotted Puffer
1- Sgt. Major
1- Coral Beauty
1- Humu Trigger
All are eating well and getting along fine.
Water parameters have been good with no problems.
OK, now I got the bug. I am looking at getting into it "full force" so-to-speak. I am looking at getting a 125-135g with overflow and sump system. I know this will be a time consuming and money consuming endeavor, but I think it will be well worth it. I plan on putting about 200-300lbs of lr and about a 3" bed of sand. I will eventually put my critters from the 30g in the new setup.
Now the question. I have seen so much on cleanup crews and I know the are bebeficial to the tank. The question I have is, what can I use that the trigger will not eat? I know they will eat the snails and probably any other typical clean up crew species. Any ideas?
Any advice or recomendations on my new setup is much apreciated.

Triggers are tough on clean up crews. You may want to post in the aggressive forum for help but I think you may be severely limited.
