    Default blue jaw/throat trigger

    I bought this guy yesterday and he's done nothing but hide in the corners. Are these guys always this shy? I have him in a 120gallon with a foxface/niger(smaller then him)/lionfish and a red sea sailfin tang. It doesn't appear that the niger is picking on him. Is this normal for some fsh to take a few days to calm down?

    give him some time to relax and get to know his environment....the fish has gone through quite a bit in being caught thrown in a bag, shipped, released in a store somewhere to repeat the whole process and finally find its new home....you get my drift.....

    Give it a couple of days and it will terrorize your tank like it owned it from day one...LOL...HOPEFULLY not............

    Very normal, ive put fish in aquariums and not see them for 3-4 days. Triggers are pretty resilant fish, it will be itself in no time.
