More about Titan triggerfish
The Titan triggerfish (Balistoides viridescens) is a large species of triggerfish predominantly found in tropical and subtropical waters across the Indo-Pacific region. It is characterized by its robust body, which is mainly olive green to dark gray in color, accented with lighter, often bluish, lines and spots. This fish can be quite aggressive, especially during breeding season, and grows to a considerable size, making it a less common choice for home aquariums. It is well-known among divers and marine enthusiasts for its striking appearance and bold behavior.
