I have a young humu humu trigger. Awsome fish. Dosnt bother my corals. But I have a bad aptasia problem in my tank

I go through a bottle of aiptasia F a month and basically stay the same. Tried molly miller blenny (awsome fish) a aphasia file fish (did not eat, gave back to lfs) and recently bought 12 berghia. Pretty sure trigger ate them or at least killed them

I have another tank with
4x flametail anthias
1x o. Clown
1x esquisite wrasse
1x firefish
1x orchard dottyback (small)
1x mandarin
1x midas blenny

Can I rehome the trigger here? Or will it kill a bunch of fish. Should I ask one of the lfs if they will take him

I need a copper band or nudibranch to save this tank badly.

I hate it because I wanted a trigger so bought a larger tank for a trigger. But am enjoying the corals

Any advice/ criticism welcomed
 
In my experience, when small he will probably leave those fish alone. As he matures, might be a different story. How big is the tank you want to move him to?
 
I wouldn't trust the trigger with any fish he could bite in half if he wanted, much less one he could eat whole.
