Pinktail Triggerfish (Melichthys vidua)

The Pinktail Triggerfish is a hardy and visually striking species, featuring a deep green body, bold white accents, and a vibrant pink tail. Unlike many triggerfish, it tends to be more mild-mannered, making it a great choice for larger fish-only or FOWLR aquariums.

This active swimmer thrives in well-established tanks with plenty of open space and rockwork for shelter. While generally less aggressive than other triggers, it may still be territorial, especially toward smaller tankmates. A varied diet of meaty foods and marine-based preparations is essential to maintain its health and coloration.

Retail Appeal:

• Hardy, active, and easier to manage than more aggressive triggerfish.
• Vibrant pink tail makes it a standout in large aquariums.
• Ideal for fish-only and FOWLR setups with appropriately sized tankmates.

Stock the Pinktail Triggerfish to offer customers a bold and dynamic species that brings both color and personality to larger marine aquariums.
