Niger Trigger

The Niger Trigger (Odonus niger) is a captivating marine creature appreciated by aquarists for its contrasting coloration, dynamic personality, and distinct physical characteristics. Dazzling blue jaws and tail fin accent its striking dark-blue-to-black body, and at full maturity, the Niger Trigger (Odonus niger) size can reach up to 18 inches. A standout characteristic of this species is the Niger Trigger (Odonus niger) teeth. The fish possesses strong, continuously growing teeth resembling a beak. These teeth play a critical role in its survival, enabling it to crack open hard-shelled prey in the wild. However, in a home aquarium setting, these teeth may necessitate special diet considerations to prevent overgrowth. Regarding accommodating a Niger Trigger in a home aquarium, the Niger Trigger (Odonus niger) tank size should be ample due to the fish's potential size. A tank of at least 180 gallons is recommended for a single Niger Trigger. If planning to include tank mates, an even larger tank size would provide enough territory for each inhabitant and minimize aggression.
