    Hi everybody
    I have just started keeping marine tanks, and I think it is awesome!!! I have had a 3ft reef tank set up for about 6 months and now I have decided to go for the biggest tank I can fit in my room and it is 150 x 60 x 72!!! It looks wicked. I have just started to cycle tha tank and I was thinking about what I wanted to put in the tank. I was originally going to do a predator tank with a banded shark, blue spot stingray, lionfish and a barra cod but I am going to do that tank later on down the track, hopefully!!!

    I have decided to go for a different type of predator tank a tank mainly with Triggers will this work??? I was wondering if I could put these guys together:
    Clown trigger
    Queen Trigger
    Picasso Trigger
    Black Trigger and
    A snowflake moray eel!!
    Do you think that would work???
    Cheers

    probably, i have an all fish tank in which there is a clown trigger,picasso,sickle trigger,large niger,dragon wrasse,large yellow tang, and 4 blue devil damsels. they all get along great. your problem may be the snowflake moray as they are rather nuts when hungry, jusy keep them well fed and you probably would get away with the combo you want.

    forgot to mention that the queen trigger you want can get really mean(so can the clown, but not usuall until they get large)and her water requiements may be a little different than the other fish as she comes from a little colder water if you can keep your temp a little cooler for her (76 or so) you should be fine, she is after all a trigger.

    Da Colt how big of a tank do you have your fish only. i am trying to get one started with triggers, but not many people i talk to mix them.
