Does he go after your snails/ clean up crew?
I had one years ago and he was a perfect gentleman
Hi G Santana,

He has been very good so far! - I have been feeding him regularly so that his belly is full which will hopefully keep his mind off the shrimps that i have in the tank. :)

They have such great personalities , have one coming from TSM next month.

Enjoy
I love the their colour and like the black markings around the eyes. It looks like they are wearing glasses :)

Had one in my last reef tank, model citizen never bothered the shrimp. It was probably the one fish everybody talked about in the tank, and I had a few eye catching Angels in that tank.

Hi rmay6850,

I have other friends in the hobby that have a very few problems with them as well. I think that if they have a full belly everything will be ok :)

Agreed, I had mine and Angels in a full reef and made sure they were well fed..that time around my corals and shrimp did fine. I hope I can say the same this time when I start dropping them in

I <3 flame Hawks.

Had one, for the first week it went after my CuC, took a few out then started eating frozen.
I am pleased that you saved your CUC - once they see you as a food source i think things get better but always good to keep an eye out for them :)

Here is my latest addition to the tank - his colour is stunning and has a character to match :) - hope you enjoy :) (1080p)


Nice video! Iv had mine for 3 years and is my favourite by far. Mine actually eats flake food from my hand at the top of the tank!
