Describe your opinion of the perfect combination of aggressive fish for a 110?:thinking:

A nice sized moray and an aggressive trigger like a humu or clown(though it will outgrow the tank in time).

If all you're feeding is flakes you're gonna have dead fish on your hands soon

pellets are much better than flakes
Frozen soaked in multi vitamins and garlic is even better though.

Frozen soaked in garlic and zoe for sure. I dont feed my aggressive fish anything else.

i feed my fish only frozen and live food...silversides,krill,ghostshrimp,brine shrimp,popcorn shrimp,and guppies... i think its better for the fish if u give them a variety of foods...better frozen.

:sleepy: sup dude! BTW: That's a SLEEPY face! Yeah man, I want a queen, a harliquin (I WAS gonna buy our's), maybe a testalota, a clown trigger, and volitan, maybe that grouper would be nice. Maybe a puffer.... I dunno.. Yeah, there's a sump on it. Not big (10), w/ a Emporer 400. I'm gonna run that skimmer you gave me from the store. Yeah it's old, but it'll work! I have some different algaes in the sump/refugium. I need to build a seperating wall in it so can do a DSB. I know it's not much for a fuge, but what the hell. It's all I can fit down there. :silly: Be cool Dragoon. I gotta get back to Accounting..............

The clown trigger will grow to a foot and a half and kill everything in the tank with it if you make it past the very small size, in which they are quite delicate.
Expect a clown trigger to reach the same length and width as a football, then imagine a set of tinsnips for teeth.
A 110 gal. tank is actually only a moderate size for saltwater, and IMO is best for ambush predators such as scorpionfish, lionfish and smaller eels.
Scorpionfish, by the way, actually enjoy each others company with NO aggression among themselves and spend much of their time laying on the sand and in the LR, thus making a lot of swimming room unimportant.
Triggers do not go well with most other predatory species, as they often attack anything that is laying in one spot.....they have the teeth to make one bite at a time just fine, as opposed to fish like lions and groupers that swallow their prey whole.
