Niger Trigger

Hi,

I have a 75 g reef tank and would really like to add a Niger Trigger. I checked several sites and got more and more confused. Some say a 55 g tank is fine others suggest a180 g tank, some state that the Trigger will not harm corals some say it will destroy anything. At a lot of pics and videos one can see Niger Triggers in reef tanks. So I aks for advice. Thanks

Clam shells small rocks bio ball. Anything new I put in my tank it would bite try to move. Had to put noire algae sheet in on one side and place the new stuff on the other. Didn't work all the time. He'd pull snails off the rocks and swim around the tank with them.

Thanks for the info. I think I'll stay away from Triggers for now.
