Male Bluejaw Trigger (Xanthichthys auromarginatus)

The Bluejaw male is what you would expect with its name. The males have the dark blue throat. The Bluejaw Triggers are a semi-aggressive fish. They need a tank size of at least 125 gallons to pace back and fourth in, with lots of rocks and caves will give the Bluejaw places to hide and explore. Make sure your rock work is solid as triggers tend to move them when wedging into hiding places. Triggers eat a Varity of meat such as mysis, brine, and other meaty food. They will need hard shell foods such as clams to help keep their teeth filed down. They are very active and may require feeding more than once a day.

This fish is guaranteed for live arrival.
