Let me be clear I'm not looking to buy I'm just curious. Anyways I've seen a wave of "titan triggers" hit the divers den lately and I'm pretty sure but not 100% positive that these are actually pineapple or yellow margin triggers can anyone confirm?

I tried to figure this out for you - trouble is, many of the photos on Google are incorrectly ID'd. Using Fishbase, which is typically more accurate, it looks like juvenile titan triggers have transverse lines above their eyes, while yellow margin juveniles are just spotted there. Pineapple trigger is just another name for yellow margin i think.

So - IMO, these are juvenile titans.

From my understanding the juvenile titans are supposed to have a "mustache" starting at the sides of their lips.
