Anyone have any suggestions for getting clown fish to leave my Flame Hawk alone? Clowns have been in the tank since the beginning. I QT'd some firefish, carpenter wrasse and the flame hawk. Added them all at the same time after QT, at night and rearranged some rocks. The clowns have left everything else alone except for that hawkfish. They chase him through the rocks all day. The funny thing is is that the clowns host a duncan in the back left of the 170 gallon tank and the hawk hides in the front right. Those clowns spend all day and night coming from their duncans, chase that hawkfish and then back to thier duncans.


Any help?

Time to rehome something.

Those clownfish are setting up a breeding ground and they can't allow any predators to camp out near by.
