Sufflamen chrysopterum: the Doubletail Triggerfish

The Sufflamen chrysopterum, also known as the doubletail triggerfish, is a marine species easily recognizable by its oval gray body and tail adorned with white stripes, giving the impression that it has two caudal fins. This particular morphological detail makes it an original fish appreciated for fish-only aquariums.

This fish exhibits a territorial temperament, especially in adulthood. Although it is generally calm outside of stressful periods, it can be dominant with smaller or timid species. Its morphology and behavior make it an excellent choice for community aquariums without invertebrates.

Care Conditions for Sufflamen chrysopterum

To ensure the well-being of the Sufflamen chrysopterum, it is necessary to provide it with an aquarium of at least 600 liters. This fish appreciates open swimming spaces as well as rocky hiding areas where it can rest or hide.

It is important to note that this triggerfish is to be avoided in reef aquariums: it quickly attacks invertebrates, mollusks, corals, and crustaceans. Prefer a specific community tank of the fish-only type.

Feeding the Doubletail Triggerfish

This opportunistic carnivorous fish feeds in its natural environment on small invertebrates, mollusks, crustaceans, worms, and sometimes algae. In captivity, its diet should be varied:

  • Shrimps, mussels, and squid
  • Large krill, pieces of fish
  • Algae-based supplements

It is recommended to feed it two to three times a day with small quantities to avoid water pollution and promote good digestion.

A Fish with a Strong Character

The Sufflamen chrysopterum is a robust, elegant fish with a well-marked personality. It is a wise choice for experienced aquarists with a spacious tank, wishing to compose a population of resilient and expressive fish. Its singular appearance makes it a true visual asset in a well-structured aquarium.
