Bursa Triggerfish

Rhinecanthus verrucosus

A popular aggressive tank mate. Though mild mannered as juveniles it will learn to not only feed from owners' fingers but feed on owners' fingers if given the chance. Belligerence will increase with age. Should be kept with fish the same size or larger. May bite eather tubes, air-line tubing and disrupt aquarium aquascaping. Like many triggers they can be taught to accept hand feedings and will often learn to grunt in participation or an attempt to talk you into a feeding.

Feed a variety of foods including mysis shrimp, clams, frozen shrimp, squid and frozen preparations.
