who's keeping a Titan trigger?

I have only had mine a short while and would like to know about things like growth rate, tankmates, etc... So far he only gets rambunctious at feeding time.

He is 5" (approx.) in a 125g tank. He is without doubt a Titan, I have kept the pineapple before (P. flavimarginatus) and although I can't pinpoint all the differences, you can just tell when you see it! The pictures don't do it justice, unfortunately.
Both these pics are from when it was in my 75g eel tank (hence the PVC sections).

how much rock does it eat during the course of a week? I've heard that titan triggers actually eat LR.

WOW! Hes soooo awesome looking and I like how clean that 75 eel tank you have looks. I hope mine will look that clean someday.

Thanks guys, yeah he's a beaut. The eel tank is so clean because the PVC is brand new! And I've never seen him chew rocks (maybe when he grows?) but I have 'heard' and seen him chew on bits of sand and CC. It's like a small gunshot - bam! bam! bambam! and then he'll spit little clouds of dust out, kinda trippy, I think it scares my other fish...lol!!
 
My friend has a huge one, about 15 inches at least. It killed everything it has come in contact with,, when they get that big they are pretty nasty, He buys it live rock for a snack..

Beach Mines about 4" and he's a crazy fish! I
have him in a 65g for now because he killed 2
butterflies, about 8 yellow tailed damseld and
a purple and splendid dottyback! He eats any
thing and is by his self for a while until I can
find out what I want to do with him! My
Undulated or my Queen aren't that mean!

Woh! That sucks, this one is in with a stars and stripes, volitans, russels, fuzzy dwarf, and a tasseled scorpion. Maybe your's will mellow out when he gets older...:rolleyes:

Mine's about 4" and in a 110 gallon with a picasso, blueline, and clown all the same size. Great personality, and smart as hell.
Peace,
Chip
