Multiple sites have it as poisonous and not something you'd keep at home, unless you want smaller fish in the tank taken care of.
Here's the classification from Wikipedia:
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Class: Actinopterygii
Order: Scorpaeniformes
Family: Triglidae

I had one, he was cool as heck, then one day, the triggers started picking on him, and I had to give him to a friend, he was cool though, he never went after any fish, including a small goby, and smaller clowns.
