    Bought flame hawk 2 wks ago, my false pencils clownfish still is not a fan of him, when the clown comes across him he chases him And my flame hawk retreats into my hammer coral that he's made his home...give them more time or do I need to pull one out?

    Sounds stressful. Any signs of harm to either fish?

    Flame Hawks can be nasty. Your tank is fairly large but I would keep a close eye on them.
