Description
The Humu Rectangle Triggerfish is a stunning trigger from Hawaii. The Humu Rectangle Trigger is also considered the state fish of Hawaii, where it goes by the name Humuhumunukunukuapuaa. Humu Rectangle Triggerfish have a mostly white body with various orange and blue lines and a very strong v pattern in black.

Humu Rectangle Triggerfish reach a maximum adult size of around 12 inches and need to be kept in tanks that are at least 125 gallons. Humu Rectangle Triggerfish are considered somewhat aggressive fish and shouldn’t be kept with very small fish and some inverts. Humu Rectangle Triggers do best when in large FOWLR tanks with other larger semi-aggressive fish.

Humu Rectangle Triggerfish tend to do better when in tanks with lots of live rock. Humu Rectangle Triggers like to how caves that can retreat to if they feel threatened. Humu Rectangle Triggerfish also make audible grunting noises that can be heard from outside of the tank.

Humu Rectangle Triggers are carnivores and require a diet very rich in meaty foods. Foods such as mysis shrimp and high quality fresh seafood like squid, clams, scallops and shrimp will help your Humu Rectangle Triggerfish stay healthy and thrive.
