Hi there ,there is a few reef safe triggers but i still think you got to be carefull as i learned the hard way with my clown trigger

Imarine is correct ....no such thing as a "reef safe" trigger. They dont "go" for the corals but as they graze the rocks, they damage the corals..:p

you could also look at these guys...if you can find them,

boomerang trigger
painted trigger
undelute trigger (nasty temprament)
indian trigger

These all stay relatively small
 
I have a blue cheek trigger - one of my favourity fish with a great character and iv'e never seen him eating any of my corals. I have no shrimps so I don't know about them though.
 
what i have are two cleaner shrimp a sexy shrimp and a red reef lobster 100mm long
I think a sexy shrimp is too small and fast
The cleaner i will have a look what will hapen
Do you think a 100mm lobster will be ok
i like the sargassum the most so
I am going to have a look at the others
