Blue throat trigger

[MikeandDee]

Has anyone had any luck having a blue throat trigger in their reef/coral system? Any ideas, thoughts, feedback would be appreciated.

I had a pair and they did very well. I got rid of them for two reasons: Hogging up the food and they were showing signs of pairing and I did not want them to overtake the tank for a territory.
They bothered nothing in the tank

I have a male blue throat trigger in my reef tank. No issues so far I have had him for two months now.

They are my holy grail. Had 3 in my established system. All other corals and fish thrive. They....don’t make it a week. Switched to Niger trigger, happy as can be. 3 months+.

I have a male. Greatest fish in the bunch. I have cleaner shrimps peppermints and a coral banded
Never messes with any of them swims the tank with my yellow tang side by side

I’ve recently researched the same and asked a whole lotta people the same question... I’ve received an overwhelming positive response

My male hasn’t bothered anything. Like Rockdiver said I have shrimp and clams in the tank. He could care less.

I had a pair that didn't bother anything but liked to splash water out of my rimless tank that just made the glass constantly look crappy. So traded with @LukeWolf

Never had any issues with them, apart from my first which chose to go carpet diving.

They are very inquisitive fish and seem to get along with tank mates
