Ok I have a 75 gallon RR (corner overflow), 29 gallon sump, 5 gallon refugium, PM redline 110 skimmer, 67 3w LEDs, 2 koralia 3's, 1 vortech mp10 and a aquacontroller 3 in my pieced together setup.

The tank has about 75-80ish lbs of live rock and about a 2-3" aragonite sand bed.

Right now the only thing in the tank is 3 mollies (dont ask, leftovers from wife's tank) and a baby (3") Niger trigger.

I'm wanting to have a fairly aggressive tank that is cool to feed and show friends, but I want to have life and beauty. My previous 180 was an SPS dominant tank with a few LPS and mostly Tangs and such. What fish can I get that will allow me the ability to have the corals and stuff like that and still be ok with my trigger. In about 2 yrs I'm moving and that is why I want to avoid SPS at this time because I dont want to move SPS colonies. I will be getting a 200+ at that time so if the fish grow they'll have room.

Could I get a snowflake eel? What about a grouper? I know shrimp, snails and crabs will be victims but I'm more worried about the corals. Also what about a dogface puffer or other triggers?

Thanks in advance.
