Maybe if you didn't sound like a petulant little kid they would.
Really, you should be lucky you got as many replies as you did. Just do a search or browse over the aggressive forum and you'll find plenty of pics.

The current fish are a damsel, royal gramma, fuzzy lionfish and a soon to be maroon clown. Here is my lion

That was my old crosshatch trigger you got. I traded it in at white's pets. You bought it for 300 from kieth. I remember seeing you com in to the store. I am very happy to see that it's doing great. nice looking tank. i curently have a 12 inch queen angel myself.

Great Tank,
I have a Queen Angel also not yet adult. What kind of trigger fish are they? what do the triggers eat? What type filters are you running? Thanks Tom C. :happyfish

Yes, it's a great fish. Aggressive, but not too aggressive. The color highlights are very subtle, both the gold and the outlining of his fins.
Why did you get rid of it?

Triggers: Humu/Picasso, Crosshatch, and Clown
Seems like they'll eat about anything, but like raw shrimp best. They'll rip a crayfish apart pretty quickly, but that is more entertainment than feeding. Makes a big mess.
Running an AllGlass sump with bioballs with an ASM G3 skimmer. Will likely add some kind of canister and UV -- I have an Ocean Clear canister/UV at home, but I'm not sure I'll add it. It came missing the o-ring around the top, so I have not plumbed it in. Also, I'm really concerned about the effect of a canister filter retaining contaminates in the filter while water is constantly flowing over them, which means that the bad stuff is not actually removed from the system often enough. The Ocean Clear seems like it will be a real pain the butt to remove the filter and clean it, which would likely mean cleanings are rarer. I think that if I add a canister, it's going to have to be extremely easy and mess free to clean, sort of like an XP, but larger.
I do weekly 30 gallon (20%) water changes, and pull about a gallon a day from the skimmer. That, combined with cutting way back on the food compared to what seems to be natural for me to feed, keeps the water quality up.

Thats actually not my golden puffer, lol.. I bought the one from white's, but he didn't have much personality. i sold him to a buddy of mine. i decided to go with some fish that could have a cleaning crew. i got rid of the crosshatch, because during feeding time he got too agressive. he wouldn't let any of the other fish eat. Have you been to aquatic pets? or you just sticking with whites? i used to manage aquatic pets. i did all there setups/cleaning on customers tanks. here is my stock list
12" queen angel
12" blonde naso tang male
7" blue hippo tang
7" purple tang
flame angel
cleaner wrasse
flame hawk
maroon clown
rosy scales fairy wrasse

Not familiar with Aquatic Pets. Where is that?
The Humu is the bruiser in my group at feeding time. Unless I scatter food over the whole tank, he eats first, then everyone else.
