Scavengers

[waterwolf]

What do you prefer to use as a detris feeder or scavenger in an aggressive setup? Is there anything triggers won't mess with?

It all depends on your trigger. What do you have?

I want to get a clown.

There isn't anything I know of that you can keep with a Clown Trigger for cleaning perposes. Unless you are really really lucky.

Try a sally lightfoot. It works for me.

I'm amazed the Sally Lightfoot is still there....do you have a very small clown trigger?
If so, the crab will probably disappear before long.
If you have a LOT of liverock, you can try some of the maller dwarf lobsters, which you'll never see but will still be eating any food particles that drift into the liverock.
Additionally the hated "fireworm" will often do well in a trigger tank and once they become established are very good at removing detritus.

I'm going to have to agree with robb on this. I have 2 clowns, not in the same tank, they will eat everything. I have seen them crush small hermits.

I have had sally lightfoots with my huma huma, and niger for 2 years with no problems.
