Unfortunately it wouldn't be the first time I had to take out all my rocks to get a fish out. I had purchased a juvenile regal tang and a royal gramma that were both smaller than my clowns and my clowns would have killed the both of them had I not taken them out of my tank.

Not the one I got... LOL Got one after commenting on this thread and it is a huge dick. Maybe 3.5 inches and killed a 4 inch potters angel, a lawnmower blenny and has beat up a couple of firefish really bad. I would be careful.

I'm thinking that I should probably just pass on the niger trigger and get a bunch more green chromis damsels to add to the two I have.

They are deffinatly not reef safe, reef caution maybe. But yea once they are adult size I would think 90% of them become aggresive. I had a niger and a huma huma both were not to bad till they became adults then started picking off the weaker fish in the tank. Took the huma huma to a LFS and he killed two of there fish in there aggresive tank. Go with the blue jaw or cross hatch imo most safe you can get with triggers

Damsels will be just as bad or worse

Why do you say that?  I already have two, and they are the most peaceful fish in my tank.
