CSS Triangle Under Button

What I am trying to accomplish on :hover.

triangle

.nav li {
  margin: 12px 0 0 20px; padding: 0;
  color: #000; font-weight: 700;
  display: inline-block;
}

.nav li+li:hover {
  background: #2f3343;
  padding: 5px 10px 5px 10px;
  margin: 0 -2px 0 20px;
  border-radius: 2px;
  font-weight: 700;
  border: none;
}

.nav .triangle {
width: 0px;
height: 0px;
border-style: solid;
border-width: 10px 12.5px 0 12.5px;
border-color: #000000 transparent transparent transparent;
}

I would like to put the triangle in the :hover but it's completely messed up. Do I need to set a specific height and add a position?

Try the following css:

.arrow {
    width: 0;
    height: 0;
    border-left: 10px solid transparent;
    border-right: 10px solid transparent;
    border-top: 10px solid #000;
    margin-left: 15px;
    display: none;
}
button:hover + .arrow {
    display: block;
}

I have made a JSFiddle similar to this. Have a look and provide your comments.
