Keeping tank clean with a trigger

[DanG]

You could go with an urchin of some sort. Pretty much any crab, snail or shrimp you add to the tank becomes dinner.

Actually, I have crabs that are years old living with my Black Blotch (Picasso relative). The crabs are large rejects from the reef tank, they stay hidden during the day and come out at night. I also have a choc star, and a rock boring urchin in there.

Could be my particular individual, but thought I'd offer that up.

Are urchins safe? I figured they would be lunch as well.
Has anyone had a trigger eat a urchin? I have a few urchins that I could throw into the tank...
They do a pretty good job of cleaning..that would be a good start

When I had triggers,I had the same problem.Might try very large snails,they seemed to outlast the smaller ones with triggers.My triggers pulled apart any urchins I tried.

I tried some blue-leggeed hermits with my triggers...they lasted 1 day.

Even the long spine black urchins?

Inverts = Trigger snacks, even long spined Urchins.
