Can you say humuhumunukunukuapua'a ❓ Now that is a mouthful! This is the Hawaiian name for the reef triggerfish and it translates to ‘fish with a snout like a pig’ 🐽. The humuhumunukunukuapua'a is the official state fish of Hawaii. In the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, their name is a bit easier to pronounce.

Meet the queen triggerfish in Great Maya Reef! The name triggerfish comes from their ability to lock its dorsal fin. When upright, the dorsal-fin spine is locked in place by its second spine. The first spine can only be lowered after the second is pulled back, like a trigger! | Audubon Aquarium

The Titan Triggerfish. Most Master Reef Guides will have a story or two to tell about the infamous Titan Triggerfish.

But don't worry, your onboard Master Reef Guide will inform you in advance if you're heading to a site which may have a nesting triggerfish present and help you to avoid these a

During breeding season, these fish become highly territorial and are known to defend their nests vigorously from intruders-

A rare sight! A Titan Triggerfish feasting on a live Giant Clam. In this epic clash of Great Barrier Reef giants, the Giant Clam finds itself on the losing side as the powerful Titan Triggerfish feeds on its soft, fleshy mantle. Master Reef Guide Natalie Smith from Reef Magic Cruises came across this scene on the Reef flats at Moore Reef. “I did try to get closer for a better shot, but the triggerfish wasn’t having a bar of me being around, as some red bass and black tip reef sharks were hanging

Many triggerfish species do eat algae, especially those in the genus Melichthys. While some triggerfish primarily feed on crustaceans and other invertebrates, others, like the reef triggerfish, incorporate algae, particularly coralline algae, into their diet. Some species, like the redtoothed triggerfish, even specialize in plankton. | Fishing World Tv

Knowledge Snap on Instagram: "Divers fear this fish more than sharks. 🦈🚫 Why? Because sharks usually ignore you. The Titan Triggerfish plans its attack. It defends an invisible pyramid-shaped territory straight up to the surface. It will chase, bite, and ram divers who get too close. And it doesn’t let go. Tag a diver who needs to see this! 👇 #TitanTriggerfish #ScubaDiving #OceanLife #MarineBiology #NatureIsScary"
