    Hello,

    I'm trying to figure out what to put in my 135 and just wanted some opinions.

    Option 1:

    Picasso Trigger
    Miniatus Grouper (if this is too big maybe a spotted grouper?)
    Dogface Puffer
    Large Angel (if I had to pick a fish to drop it would be this one)

    If this would work, I know to put the trigger in last but what order would you put the others in?

    Option 2:

    Clown Triggerfish by itself. I've read people say don't put one in a tank under 200, and some places say the minimum is 125. Anybody have any experience with keeping one long term?

    If nether of these will work I think I'm going to go with Option 3, a reef tank haha

    I would personally go with option 3 regaurdless. A Saltwater fish tank without corals is like Harold Melvin without the Blue Notes...you'll never go platnium. haha

    Yeah I agree coral is sweet I want to get another tank going eventually, I just love the personality of these aggressive fish.

    It probably won't be as nice to look at but I think it will be more fun, still undecided I'm early in the process (sump is coming next Friday.)

    It's a tough decision!

    2in10 have you ever dealt with any of these fish? I like the clown trigger more then any fish unfortunately you can't put coral or any other fish with it haha

    I still think its almost worth it..
