Canthidermis maculata. The Spotted Triggerfish is a very large and rarely seen trigger in home aquariums. Spotted Triggerfish are mostly fully black with many silver and light blue spots on their body.
Spotted Triggerfish reach a maximum adult size of around 20 inches and need to be kept in tanks that are at least 300 gallons in size. Spotted Triggerfish are aggressive fish that should not be kept with smaller less aggressive fish. Spotted Triggerfish are also known to like moving rocks around. This makes them a horrible addition to reef tanks.
