    ...he sounds like mine! Ours acts the same way - in fact, we have dubbed ours the "Mayor" of the tank.

    and just think how happy your fiancee likely is, seeing you get enjoyment out of the Hawk now.

    Have you named him yet? If you don't name him maybe your fiancee will come up with a fun name.

    so glad you are enjoying the fish so far! :)

    Hum. hawkfish and shrimp. I'm out one cleaner shrimp because of my flame hawk. But most likely its because I added that shrimp after the hawkish. He seems to bE leaving the other shrimp aLone. I actually posted a thread of my. Hawkish with two. Antenna sticking out o his mouth sometime ago. I'm on my mobile Now and I have no Idea how to link it to this thread. If anyone could remember that thread and like it here please.
    Hope it works out for you. IME as long as your shrimp is in there longer u shouldn't have A problem.

    Hopefully I will be getting some pics up in the next couple days. He still jets behind the rocks when I get too close to the tank. Him and my Coral Beauty had a little scuffle today over his perch...I think the Flame won for now. Shrimps still doing fine!

    I would try not feeding it too much, if I were you I'd try to keep it small. It might get more curios when it gets bigger. But it was great gift though, they are a really cool fish.

    Triggerfish, I'm afraid that if I don't feed it then it will look to find food another way...aka MY FIRE SHRIMP!

    I'm back on my laptop now. I notice my spelling is quite off when using the blackberry lol. Thanks for linking the thread onefishtwofish.
    I wish you the best of luck Mr. Ace. You shouldn't have a problem though just don't introduce any new shrimp;)
