Pseudobalistes fuscus

Pseudobalistes fuscus, commonly known as the Yellow-spotted triggerfish, is one of the most colorful triggerfishes when small. Unfortunately, this changes when it grows older, and it also does grow a lot larger than the average aquarist can house. Juveniles have a yellow body with blue lines on it making the yellow look like spots. When they grow older the blue lines get more connected until the entire body is blue. Sometimes the edges of the fin show some purplish-red. Combined with the triggerfish shape and graceful swimming, this is a very attractive fish, but due to their size you do need a very large tank to house them.

Remember it isn't reef safe though! It's diet consists of sea urchins, crustaceans, mollusks, fish, tunicates and corals. It can be agressive to other fishes, so make sure you pick the other fishes with care!
