Question Triggers and Clowns

In my 180 fowlr I have a mated pair of Ocelerais Clowns that have been with me for a little over a year. There is a small bursa trigger that resides with them as well, and about the same size as the smaller clown and doesnt bother the clowns at all.

My question is I have about a 2 inch Niger Trigger in QT at the moment and was wondering if I should remove the Clowns to my 40 gallon refugium when I had the Niger or leave them??

Also if I have to remove them whats the least stressful way to catch the pair???


Sorry for the long questions but I dont want to regret my decisions.

Any help would be appreciated

I haven't done it personally but I know many people who have. Niger triggers are usually some of the most peaceful triggers out there, and many people keep them in reefs with clowns and other reef safe fish.

IMO you should be absolutely fine.

I would leave the clowns, and just watch closely for any aggression.
