Description

The Pineapple Trigger (Canthidermis maculata) is a unique triggerfish known for its distinct yellow body with scattered black markings that resemble the texture of a pineapple. This fish is an active swimmer and often displays intriguing behaviors in the aquarium. It requires a spacious tank with plenty of hiding spots, as it can become territorial. While it may coexist with some invertebrates, caution is advised as the Pineapple Trigger may nip at smaller reef inhabitants, especially in confined spaces. Its diet should include a variety of meaty foods such as shrimp, squid, and fish fillets to maintain its health and vibrant colors.
