Undulate Triggerfish

Balistapus undulatus

An exceptionally beautiful species often called the most belligerent marine aquarium fish available. Because it is so attractive, hardy and has a great repertoire of behaviors, it is a favorite with some aquarists. Best kept singly in an aquarium of its own, even if housed with other aggressive species, it is likely to attack tankmates sooner or later. Often shy at first, but in time many specimens learn to associate their caretaker with food and swim near the surface waiting for a tasty morsel. Feeds on a wide range of invertebrates.

Feed a mixed diet of meaty foods, including chopped shrimp, squid, clams, and fish. Also frozen rations with marine algae and vitamin-enriched foods.
