  • We have a Huma Huma and a lionfish as well. Damsels too.The trigger is the more aggresive eater and winds up eating all the food. (We feed them both feeder fish). The lionfish is more nocternal and likes to hide. Do you have any suggestions on how to feed the lionfish? Thinking about feeding with the reacher...

  • @crystancasey ya thats the best way....dont be afraid to shoo away the trigger with the tongs...he will get the idea....GL

  • What is the fish you are feeding them?

    Is it just fish you buy at the supermarket?

    I have a trigger and only feed him mysis shrimp.

    Thats not a bad idea hand feeding them.

    I'll have to get one of those grabbers at the Rite aid pharmacy.

  • @goblin072

    the fish i feed him is silversides...they come frozen at pet stores.

  • I picked up some of those frozen silverside fish.

    They look like sardines.

    I put one in a suction cupped feeding clip and man did the trigger love it. He seems to be much healthier since switching to silversides.

    I'm thinking the mysis shrimp was not enough for him.

    Thanks!

  • @goblin072 great Good job

see all

  • i also had a russel lionfish and a picasso trigger i also had a foxface rabbitfish but the picasso trigger ate the rabbitfish's eyes ........ the picasso trigger hogged all the food we even pushed him adise with tongs. but he was still hungry he ate the lionfishs fins and that eventually gave him fin rot which killed him.............

    now i have 1 adult picasso triggerfish (same one) 1 baby picasso 1 niger trtiggerfish and a spiney puffer

  • i wuld feed them live fish
