Blue Throat Trigger

[milkton]

hi, just got a blue throat trigger today, they look really nice!

just wondering if any of you guys on this forum know any useful tips or hints i should keep in mind.. thx!

Watch any cables that are in the tank, Triggers have a nasty bite. One recently bit through Scotts Heater cable whilst away on holiday and he all fish in that tank.

A sump is a good idea if you are keeping Triggers as equipment can be moved. I would consider closed loop aswell or using Vortechs (wireless) in the display tank for circulation.

Watch your fingers in the tank too.

Excuse me if my memory serves me wrong, but don't you have a nano tank?

This trigger will grow to about 10 inches. a lovely trigger and one of the least aggressive but too big for a nano
