New Tank

[flapper]

When I git ready for my new Eels & Triggerfish can anybody tell me which is best to start out with & how many of each, Will the damsels be ok in there?, They said for me to bring a water sample with me & they will check it. I can't wait to git everything in there.

I do not really understand what all you are asking. Triggers will eat damsels.

triggers and eels will most likely eat the damsels, so if you are ssking this because you cycled your tank with the damsels, see of the LFS will take them back or chalk them up to an expensive meal. Other than that, do you have any specific questions. How big is your tank and how much rock do you have and how do you have it set up and what is your filtration.
Eels and triggers are very messy animals so you need to have really good filtration. Also you want to make sure your eel can go under the rock. If you have a picture that would be GREAT

How many of each depends how big your tank is but it's good to start out with 1 anyway. Don't add all the fish at once, especially with a new tank.

How big is your tank gallons and actualy length x width? What triggers do you plan on keeping and what eel?

My tank is a 47 gal., But I just found out that it will be awhile before my tank is cycled & that I can't have all the fish I thought I could, Gonna start out with a small Snow Flake eel, Need alot help, it seems like alot of work & knowledge will be needed....thanks

Do you have a picture of what you have so far?

Not yet, I'm gonna try some raw shrimp to cycle tank due to some new advise that I just received.
