beautiful fish, just a little out of my price range.

Those are my bucket list fish! When i have finished moving and we build i will have a nice large lps/softy tank with them!

they are often hard to find paired but I personally have seen a pair about once a year...

Sold already. :-( My bucket list as well . . .

They are awesome looking fish. That's the second pair they've had in the past 2 weeks that sold within 48 hrs. Wish I had a tank big enough for a pair

8" fish need a 500+ gallon tank to be comfortable. They would probably nip at LPS....

Crosshatch triggers are one of the ONLY triggers considered to be reef safe(excluding shrimps and snails, lol)... I have seen about 12 different ones in 12 different tanks over the years with sps and lps and never nipped.... that being said there are always exceptions but as far as I have ever seen and heard they are not nippers...

I had a pair in my 65x36x25. They never touched a thing in the tank but they ate too much and that was just too much crap going in the tank. They had to go.

Mosy triggers are veryyyyy messy..but thats why i think i did so well with all the softies in my tank,lol...but back then i also ran a skimmer that was sized 2x bigger than my tank and a large UV sterilizer...
