Fay Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Looking great!! love that last fish he is cool!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Posted August 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 No flash... worse with the flash on. I love my Trigger... got him when he was real small. I have 3 shrimp and he has never touch them. He is the one that was locked in a cave after a move for two weeks, I put a coral at the entrance and could not find him. I assumed he was a moving loss. Then one day I saw a bit of blue (tail) sticking out around the coral, moved the coral and a skinny trigger appered. Sitting in a cave smelling food for 2 weeks. Too big for the cave now. Notice.... all the white spot has gone. PB Tang was covered for weeks. Doing nothing works and is harder than adding everything. After all we feel better doing somthing to help even if it kills the little buggers. Human nature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tel Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 nice, good to hear about the w/s. as to that corner would you not remove it and look at the flow there? do you vodka? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Posted August 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Yes I plan to vacuum tomorrow with a water change. I use Bioclean and BioDigest with some Zeovit products. For a newish tank and 25% new rock this is about as bad as it has got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fay Posted August 26, 2006 Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 It is going to be a shame to move it looking so sweet. Do you want me to look after your PB and Triggger So are Triggers reef safe There was one in Raro when we went diving that would let me pat it he was an oldie and lovely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trinity Posted August 26, 2006 Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 :bounce: :bounce: Love the Niger Trigger have had my eye on one at wonderworld for ages, might get one for the other tank when its finished. Hey Fay from what I have read they are pretty safe for reef tanks, harmless to corals, but may nip at sponges, tunicates, ornamental crustaceans and snails. To keep with cleaner shrimps, add the shrimps first. They look glorious when they swim along, both top and bottom fins sway through the water :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Posted August 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 If you want a Niger Trigger get a small one, as small as possible. Mine has been trouble free and picks up rocks when you move things around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Posted August 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 Trinity, I have quite a few shrimp aned he was added after them, small is the key. Once he has the taste your stuffed. Small... :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chimera Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 nuts alright, most triggers are not reef safe. then again some say they've kept them mostly with success, and only had them nip on inverts and clams. good luck with it!

VERY COOL FISH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tel Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 good luck Fay. to be realistic some owners of salt tanks are prob not reef safe either :lol: so the risk is all relative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trinity Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 :bounce: :bounce: I believe your will turn him into a best friend Fay and he will leave everything alone I can just see him sitting infront of the glass, like your sixline wrasses but instead of turning his body, opening his mouth going feed me, feed me. If you don't succeed, I have a good history of turning my fishies into pancys :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
