On page 6 of the 2005 Marine Depot catalog in an Aqua C ad, anyone know what kind of trigger that is?

It's purple with black dots covering the body behind the gills.

Under the eye there are three darker purple lines.

I've never seen one before.

Nope....

It's actually in Jason's (the owner of Aqua-C) tank. He e-mailed me and said it's a Sargassum trigger. It's related to the blue-throat / blue-jaw trigger though. Thanks to everyone to looked.

Here's the e-mail.

Jack,

Thanks for the message, that is a "sargassum" trigger which is closely related to the blue jaw trigger. The one pictured is a male and happens to be in my reef tank at home... A very peaceful fish, even in a reef.

Let me know if you have any other questions and I can help out.

This isn't the pic he's talking about but it's a Sargassum.

I was looking at them but decided to go with a blue throat because I think they they have better colors.
