Xanthichthys caeruleolineatus

Reef Safe with Caution

The Goldenback Triggerfish, scientifically known as Xanthichthys caeruleolineatus, is admired for its vibrant coloration, featuring a mix of golden and blue tones with distinct markings that highlight its elegant appearance. This triggerfish is known for its hardy and active nature. While generally considered reef safe, it should be monitored in reef tanks as it may occasionally nip at corals or invertebrates, particularly in smaller or less established environments. The Goldenback Triggerfish thrives in well-maintained aquariums with ample swimming space and hiding spots, making it a stunning and dynamic addition to larger marine tanks.

These fish are for saltwater aquariums only.
