| Fast Facts | This is an attractive fish that acts more like a dog than a fish! Young fish are mild-mannered and usually behave themselves. But like most triggers, as they get larger they may become more belligerent. They can be kept with fish equal in size or larger. Keep one of these fish per tank, although it can be housed with other triggers. It may also rearrange the aquarium décor.
