Description

Considered to be Hawaii’s state fish, the Humu Rectangle Triggerfish, also known as the Rectangular Triggerfish, Wedge-tailed Trigger, or the V-line Humuhumunukunukuapuaa, has a pearly white face and two blue and black stripes across the eyes. It is also recognized by the black V-pattern outlined in yellow that highlights the posterior section of the body.

The Humu Rectangle Triggerfish or Wedge-tailed Trigger needs a 180 gallon or larger aquarium with rocks and caves. It may rearrange the landscaping and rocks. It vocalizes using a “grunting” sound.
