Hey guys,

I have a 90 gallon FOWLR tank with the following grow-outs... will upgrade as needed in the future.

This is my current stock:

1) 2.5" Clown Trigger
2) 2.5" Undulated Trigger
3) 3" White Spotted Grouper (not a Panther Grouper)
4) Few Damsels, which were purchased to assist in cycling...but will hopefully become food or donations sooner or later...

What else could I add to this stock?

Thanks for the input

Be careful with the undulated trigger. If he hasn't taken over your tank, he will. Chances are he will become the sole survivor in your tank even with other aggressive fish unless they are twice his size.

You will have WWII on your hands between the Clown Trigger and Undulated Trigger. Both are notorious for being nasty aggressive fish. Even in an appropriate sized tank will be trouble if they both live together...

you could add a bigger tank to your stock list ;) other than the damsels i think every one of those fish on its own will grow too big for the tank. also, they are all heavy poopers...

The clown and undulated trigger will get along for now but keep in mind that the undulated trigger is well known for ambush attacks on other fish.I bought an undulated trigger that ripped the bottom jaw off a niger trigger in my tank the first day he was introduced.You can add a black lionfish .

My triggers never attack my lionfish.Keep us posted.

Mine always did! The lion's fins would end up all torn up, and mined you the lions were always way larger then any of my groupers. Of course this was during the age of lfs advice. Not much at the library on sw fish, and long before I new of the sites on the net.
Now there is really no excuse for poor choices as there is so many ways to do research. With the exception of those poor folks out there that are not aware of all the valuable info on the net.;)
But I certainly hope you are right!!!!!! I hate to see the poor fish go through the damage.
