Lionfish and Niger Trigger

What's the minimum size tank I would need for a black volitan lionfish and a niger trigger?

Re: Lionfish and Niger Trigger

Would a 75 gallon-80 gallon work because volitans lionfish grow 15" and niger triggers grow 16"

Re: Lionfish and Niger Trigger

I should think that will be fine - I would say minumum of 55 gallons but obviously the bigger the better!

Re: Lionfish and Niger Trigger

I wouldn't keep a trigger with a lionfish. They can both be aggressive but the triggers more so...

Re: Lionfish and Niger Trigger

Well the other day I was at a petstore and I saw a red volitan lionfish in the same tank with a picasso trigger. I'd think it would be a bad idea to put a lionfish with a very aggressive trigger such as an undulate trigger.
