gilded triggerfish

xanthichthys auromarginatus

Easy The Gilded Triggerfish is easy to care for. You can't give it enough space, give it a 1500 liter tank to enjoy a healthy and happy fish. Keep your salinity within 1.021-1.026 (at 25°C) and temperature between 23-26°C. The Gilded Triggerfish likes to eat artemia, big frozen food, flakes, krill and mysis.

This fish is reefsafe with caution. There is a risk involved in introducing it to your corals. Read about the experiences of other hobbyists and make up your own mind about taking that risk. Don't say we didn't warn you!

We consider the Gilded Triggerfish to be a semi-aggressive fish. Be careful when introducing it to your less (or more) aggressive fish. It is, however, not a fish that will be the terror of your tank.
