    Hi guys,

    I got an arc-eye hawkfish last night and we was doing really well....eating and what not. One of my two clowns have been picking on it today and its fins are now pretty chewed up.

    I read that the arc-eye hawkfish should be the last one to add to a community tank because they can be aggressive, but I think the tables have turned.

    Any suggestions/ideas on how I could save this little guy?

    Happy Easter!!
