Pixie Hawk, reef safe??

Rhetorical question, those are my cleaner shrimps antenna hanging from his mouth, who by the way let my shrimp clean him the day prior. He's now traded in. Awesome fish just not peaceful enough for my tank.

Sorry but that's a cool picture. You sure it's the shrimp and not a molt?

 

[Oneway]

Haha ya def the shrimp, found the decapitated body just after.

It is overall a good fish and regarded as reef safe caution although you never hear of them reeking havoc in a reef tank.
It may turn predatory towards small gobies, firefishes, small wrasses etc, and should not be housed with them, especially in a smaller aquarium

They’re good overall but may pose a threat to your inverts and other, more peaceful fishes especially bottom dwellers. The Flame and Longnose are more peaceful but the smaller Hawks have somewhat less potential to wreak havoc compared to the Arc Eye and the truly large Hawks.
