I am planning on having a 75 gallon FOWLR tank, and I was wondering if there are any triggerfish that would be happy in 75 gallons? or maybe any Tangs.......thanks

A niger or pink tail trigger would be OK in a 75. You can keep a yellow tang in there with the trigger as well.

Thanks, so a Humu Humu wouldnt be a good choice then? I would guess not since you didnt mention one.....Ive never seen a pink tail Trigger, I'll have to do a search.....but thanks alot :happy:

Actually a Huma huma would be OK too. They are a little more aggressive than the others mentioned but should do OK with a tang. Just be sure to get fish about the same size.
I'd post a pic of my pink tail but I don't have any right now.

That is definetly an awesome fish. Another quick question, could I keep either a Humu Humu or a Pink Tail for their entire life? or would I have to get rid of them or get a bigger tank once they were fully grown? thanks :happyfish

If it grows to full size then a bigger tank would make it a lot happier. If your tank isn't too crowded with rocks then the 75 might be OK.

I like him a lot. He's lots of fun to watch as he cruises the tank. He has one cave that is his favorite resting spot. He'll swim up to the cave and carefully back into it. Sometimes he sticks his head out and turns sideways to see what's going on above him. Great fish for a large FO tank.
