Bamboo sharks and leopard sharks, nothing else comes close to being as cool as them. <img src="graemlins//freak.gif" border="0" alt="[freak]" />

Around our house it is our horned shark. We have had him for almost 2 years and he follows us around the tank watching us. :rolleyes:

Too hard to call, my clown and huma triggers are great, but then again I really dig my dogface puffer. :D :D

A PhD in keeping triggerfish? 'Cmon, they eat anything and could live in pickle juice. That's like having a PhD in breathing...lol

I have to say the bull shark is my favorite aggressive fish, but out of all the fish i have kept it is the one of the trigger species i use to own. :D

demodan- You have a point. But I have been keeping triggerfish for a long time. I said I have a p.h.d. because I know how to keep triggers successfully together(even in tanks as small as 40 gallons) without attacking eatchother. Sure they may put a bight once a week or so, but thats it. This is just one example of the many things I know about triggerfish(well at least that other people know).

Topfish,
HOW do you keep triggerfish in a 40 gallon? Do you sit down and have a chat with them and tell them "no fighting?" :D

I have a 44 gallon pentagon with 35 lbs of live rock. I would like to put 3-4 aggressive fish in the tank. What would you suggest?

IMO that is way too small to have 3-4 aggressive fish. These guys need room to move and sorry to say I think it's too small.

Hey, Top, I was just goofin', keeping any saltwater fish can be a challenge, they don't read the books. I have a clown and a huma in a 45 right now, and they do get along, most people would say not to do it. They will be in a 150 soon, but for now, they are getting along, just have to feed them carefully. The only time they nip is feeding time, but they both eat out of my hand, so I developed a two hand system. Sorry if I offended you, sometimes my sense of humor is a little off.
