Overview

The Bluelined Triggerfish, also known as the Blue-and-Gold Triggerfish, Blue Triggerfish, Rippled Triggerfish, or Yellowspotted Triggerfish, has a brilliant blue and yellow rippled effect over the entire body, accented by bright green eyes.

A 300 gallon or larger aquarium with rocks and caves provides a good environment. The Bluelined Triggerfish will rearrange the landscaping and rocks. It can sometimes be heard making a grunting sound.

The Bluelined Triggerfish needs a varied diet of meaty foods including; squid, krill, clams, small fish and hard shelled shrimp to help wear down their ever growing teeth.

Approximate Purchase Size: Tiny: Under 1" Small: 1" to 2-1/2"; Medium: 2-1/2" to 4"; Large: 4" to 6"

Customer Testimonials

Peter Martorana Howell , NJ
A very aggressive fish. Not quite as aggressive as the Queen Trigger, but close. Will re-arrange all things in aquarium and will nip at most fish. Should only be keep with large and aggressive fish , larger then himself. Very pretty and personable, and a great eater.
