The fish arrived healthy and active. It has been in my 140-gallon tank for two months and is thriving. I feed it frozen shrimp daily and it’s very active. Just be aware it’s aggressive and not suitable for a community tank.

Received the Niger Trigger in good condition. It’s a striking blue-green fish and very active. I’ve maintained the water parameters as specified and it’s staying healthy. Needs a large tank and should not be kept with other fish.
Jason Paterson –
The fish was alive upon arrival and seems to be adjusting well. I’m cautious about its aggression and have isolated it from other species. Water conditions are stable and it eats regularly.
