Flame Hawkfish

[thedeper]

I am wanting a Flame Hawkfish and was wondering if I would be able to house one with a Skunk Cleaner Shrimp (it is HUGE) and 2 pistol shrimp (easily 2+ inches and has a watchmen goby with them)?

I think the skunk would be a goner. The pistols will probably be ok, though.

50/50 ive seen them pick on inverts and then i ve seen em completely ignore them in some tanks

1 happy hawk and zero happy shrimp

Ah well I will pass on him...I favor my Skunk more.

I agree with everyone above. Hawks are semi-agressive anyways. So the shrimp would not be very intimidating.

Depends on what's important to you in your tank. I l<u>ove</u> my flamehawk. He's so personable, hoping from perch to perch and rolling his eyes at me. Fun to watch.

He's been in my system now for over a year and lives compatibly with a cleaner shrimp and other inverts in which he's shown absolutely no interest. I know that could change at any time and that I'm taking a chance, but Hawkeye stays. Love this guy.

You could try a longnose hawk. All the personality without the lust for inverts!
