I have a 60gallon long thats cycled and ready to stock. The guy at the store said that Chromis are easy for a beginner to salt. Should I get about 6 of those and have them school? Any other recommendations?

Is there even a trigger than fits in a 60?I'm bias towards triggers so I would get a trigger. They are very hardy so it would be a good 1st fish for you.
Every trigger I see at the various lfs's would have no issue starting off in a 60g. Ya they are gonna grow some quicker than others but it will take some time before you would even need to provide a larger home. I have 5 in my 90g mixed reef. My tank is packed with fish and corals so gonna go bigger soon.Is there even a trigger than fits in a 60?
I also am a big trigger fish fan! How do keep them from getting after your corals???Every trigger I see at the various lfs's would have no issue starting off in a 60g.

Great choice for new entries into your system.Picked up a couple of clownfish last night. They seem real happy so far!
They show no interest in them except the Clown on occasion will nip a smooth skinned acro colony, I keep it for him! I feed my fish 12 Hikari cubes and chunks of Rods in the afternoon so they are never really hungry. Maybe that's it but triggers don't have corals on there primary food list.I also am a big trigger fish fan! How do keep them from getting after your corals???
