Go for pinktail, bluethoat or niger trigger, these are more easy going trigger and mostly they will leave other fish untouch.

I am keeping this three species of trigger together with my softies, clam and other fish, they dont even bother with my softies and clam and even smaller fish like chromis. Maybe i am lucky :)

Yes, i have kept a orange-lined trigger myself for the past year and yes, it will tear to shreds ANY fish placed together with it.. it's just a matter of time.

However, it comes very handy if you're planning to get rid of some unwanted hitchhiker crabs or mantis shrimps hidden in your live rocks. :rolleyes:

orange-line (undulate) is one of the most aggressive triggers around, esp for its size. personally, its not a gd trigger to keep as it tends to hide, and it bites almost anything. had one. had to return it to lfs. it will bite things bigger than it. it had no concept of size <_<

that said, triggers are like humans, sumtimes cannot stereotype them.

almost all the clown triggers that i had (including the current one) are one of my most docile triggers.

had a niger that was a terror! current one is a sweet rabbit.

had a pink-tail that was a bully (they are supposedly very gentle in nature)

had a blue-chin that has a sweet disposition.

had a bursa that was a sotong.

had a pineapple trigger that has zero personality. boring fish.

my current triggers (clown, nigger and piccasso) lives harmoniously. they left my hermit crab and urchin alone!!! the aggressive fish in my tank is the emperor angel. intend to add one more trigger or a wrasse. ideally would be a BLACK trigger but so $$$$$. would love a queen trigger but no space..

also make sure ur fishes are well-fed as hungry fishs can turn aggressive.
