Genus
Common name: Clown Triggerfish
Scientific name: Symphorus
The genus Symphorus, commonly known as Clown Triggerfish, includes some of the most striking species in the triggerfish family. These fish are known for their bold patterns and colors, with a mix of spots, stripes, and patches that make them stand out in any aquarium. They are intelligent and can be quite personable, but they can also be aggressive, especially towards smaller tank mates or when defending their territory. Hobbyists should provide them with plenty of space and hiding spots, as well as a varied diet that includes meaty foods.
