Hi,

I aquired a Hawaiian Black Trigger about 5" long, and I was wondering if there is something at the local seafood store I can buy to regularly feed him and keep his teeth from growing to big.

Any comments would be welcome,

Paul

clams - freeze them, then thaw them, then pop them open and throw the whole thing in the tank. leave the shell in for a few days - they will go back to gnaw on it a number of times looking for more food.

crab claws work great too, but I think you might find them kind of expensive. I also throw in whole shrimp
