Hi, and to RS!

Sounds like a nice setup you've got there. First of all, what kind of trigger is it? It kind of makes a difference, cause there's a couple that are pretty much compatable with nothig, and some that get way too big for a 92 gallon tank. If it is a picasso or pink tail (or black) trigger, it will probably do fine with other fish. Also, about how big is this trigger?
A few recommendations for fish, ones that I personally like anyways-
Maroon clowns, if they are large enough, they can hold their ground against a lot of agressive fish.
lionfish, always a neat fish for a FO tank, IMO.
eels, altho I have seen one get picked on by triggers to the point of death, when it was weak.
puffer fish, I like porcupines personally.
Those are only a few that I can think of right now. I definately would not put all of those in the same 92 gallon tank tho, way too much. I would reccomend putting the least agressive fish in first to prevent any territorial issues.

welcome Derm.

joe is right, is this the 92 corner tank? if so species of trigger is more important due to length issues. snowflake eels are cool for FO tanks as the slither through the rocks, although they are not the brightest fish when it comes feeding. also beware of carpet surfing(jumping out).there are species of wrasses that can handle the more aggressive set ups toom linare and dragon wrasee pop to mind. harlequin tusk are beautiful and tough enough. let us know and we can go from there.

i say this as my best advice to a beginner. do not,,,and i repeat,,,,,DO NOT look at my tank as an example....i have a well practised eye, decades of experience, and a trunkload of failures to allow me to force the issue and get away with things most cannot~
