trigger and flamehawk together?

Hi~! Recently I've been cycling another 31 gal. tank with picaso and niger triggers.
I know that is too dangerous to put shrimps or crabs in it.

Here is another question. How about flamehawk?
Is it possible to put it into this tank together?
and How about putting a sebae anemone and a percular clown in it?
Does this trigger can nip it enough to die? or doesn't care about it?

can you guys tell me about experiences you have? Thank you..

picassos vary in their aggressiveness.
hard to tell with that species.
cannot make a recomendation regarding flamehawk. my picasso is relatively mellow so far only 4"

picassos and inverts do not mix.

First of all WELCOME to REEFLAND!!

Now, a 31-gallon tank will be too small for even two triggers when they grow. I would wait at least several months before placing an anemone in there since it requires a stable and established tank. A pair of Clownfish would be great, but I would wait and not put an anemone in yet.

Keeping an anemone successfully also requires that you have certain type of lighting.

What kind of lighting will be on this 31 gal?

elmo-
not sure but it sounds to me like you are indicating that the invert would be fine with the picasso??
If you have successfully done this, it is sure the 'exception' and not the 'rule'.

Agreed 100 % (in answer to the anemone and shrimps question)

Dangerous for the shrimps and crabs (they are on trigger's diet, so if they get caught by them, they are shrimp cocktail)

As Triggers said, it depends on the personality of your triggers. My Picasso was also a model citizen (gave it to a friend because I was going reef). In general triggers are aggressive fish, so you should only mix them with fishes that could defend themselves.

Also answered above, no anemone and triggers in the same tank.
