==Behavior== Lagoon triggerfish live in the reefs and sandy areas of [[coral reef]]s, where they eat just about anything that comes along, mostly including invertebrates and reef algae. They are always restlessly swimming around and vigorously protect their territory against intruders, including divers, especially when guarding their eggs during reproduction season. Their relatively small size makes them much less dangerous than the larger [[titan triggerfish]] of the same family.{{cn|date=June 2022}} The fish moves through the water by using waving motions in its dorsal and anal fins, allowing it to move more precisely. Using these movements, it can move forwards, backwards or simply hover in place above the reef. This means that it can more easily back out of crevices than other unidirectional fish.{{cn|date=June 2022}}
