Rhinecanthus aculeatus - English
URL: http://www.actwin.com/fish/species/Rhinecanthus_aculeatus.html

A "Picasso" Triggerfish (Rhinecanthus aculeatus), more commonly known a as a Humu-Humu Triggerfish is actually one of the more aggressive (so they say) triggerfish. I keep one in a species tank with a Niger Triggerfish (Balistoides niger) and they seem to get along pretty well, however the R. aculeatus is about half the size of the Niger.
