Giant hawkfish... who's got one??

[McPuff]

Cirrhitus rivulatus, aka the Giant Hawkfish. Anybody have one? I see them for sale in LFS on occasion and more often (now, for example) on Divers Den.

Tell us about yours, post some pics, share its name, share your tank specs and fish assemblage details. They are very cool but the word "giant" in its name suggests that only those with GIANT tanks can actually house one.

Looking forward to seeing some!

I didn't know about those. 9 lbs!? I'll stick to my longnosed hawk instead.
