    If you're doing an agressive tank, other triggers are great, panther groupers, puffers, lionfish are all good!!!

    I would give them good room to swim....4' or 6' long tanks are great!!!

    They get fairly large, I would feel safe with a full grown one in a 120+ at least.

    Well fudge,i have a 29 gallon setting around thats a pretty decent setup with a cp light and skimmer and was thinking of a fowler setup because i love that particular fish,so i'll have to do some research on fish suitable for that size tank.but thanks for the advise anyway.:(
