Niger Triggerfish - Odonus Niger Stock Photo

Niger Triggerfish is one of the more peaceful of the triggerfish and is considered by many people to be reef safe. It will not pick at corals but may nip at clams and definitely any crustaceans, sponges, tunicates and snails. Reportedly it will tolerate a cleaner shrimp providing the shrimp is introduced first. Any cleaner shrimp added after the trigger will likely be eaten.
