I’d like to get a few sexy shrimp for my maxi minis, but I have a geometric Pygmy hawk….I’m assuming he’ll smoke em. Is this accurate? Would the nem be protection? Any inverts out there that would have a chance? Have a few trochus and a small emerald crab and maybe a hermit in there with him. He appears to not bother them?

Depends on the size of both if the hawkfish is full grown then ibwouldnt bother. However if it is still young and can't fit the shrimp in its mouth you could probably add them. The anemones should provide protection if they can settle in them before the hawkfish gets to them.
