Triggers are not reef safe.

As aseideman00 said they will harass fish and are extremely territorial with a viciuos set of teeth. They will eat crabs, snails, and ornamental shrimp as those are part of their natural diet. As they grow and can get quite large, they may even nip the hobbiest as you try to clean the tank.

These are great fish in a large fish only tank filled with fish that are of similar disposition. A big/bad boy tank if you will.
