Mine love the power heads and equipment that sits down into the DT as well. Sounds happyJust got my flame hawk from Live Aquaria yesterday! He's still getting used to the QT tank right now, haven't really seen him eat yet. This guy is great so far, though. He's rooming with 2 snowflake clowns and a yellow prawn goby right now. I find him resting on the powerhead, on the temp probe wire, by the airstone, hopefully he's happy.

He ate some frozen today, so that makes me happy. I love how his eyes dart around and then locks in on you. My yellow prawn goby is a pig. My 2 snowflake clowns don't seem that interested in eating much. Worries meMine love the power heads and equipment that sits down into the DT as well. Sounds happy
Size is everything. Tiny is female. XXL is male.I have a flame hawk I have had for a few years. Any advice on pairing it up with a second one?
I've read get two tiny ones and it will happen. Do they change sex like clowns?Size is everything. Tiny is female. XXL is male.
Medium is total guesswork.
Use an acclimation box for the second fish.
Be prepared to remove the second fish from the tank. [emoji53]
They do but in the opposite way. Dominant becomes Male instead of female.I've read get two tiny ones and it will happen. Do they change sex like clowns?
Thanks I will look for a small one. It seams like they are all the same size (large) when I see them.Size is everything. Tiny is female. XXL is male.

Love this picture, "what you looking at?"They are a fun fish with lots of personality. While mine perches all over he particularly loves this large cabbage coral.
Anyone have any experience with flow for hawkfish? Specifically flame hawks but in general?
@wallace what are you using for a powerhead now? Tell me a little about your tank. Can you post a list of your livestock here?Anyone have any experience with flow for hawkfish? Specifically flame hawks but in general?
In nature they are found in sps branches, so can handle quite a bit of flow.Anyone have any experience with flow for hawkfish? Specifically flame hawks but in general?
I agree with @eatbreakfast. They are very often a nice addition to a tank with community fishes but they are not reef safe with some invertebrates like snails and hermit crabs. Which is very much a bummer.In nature they are found in sps branches, so can handle quite a bit of flow.
They can't eat snails and have a difficult time hunting hermit crabs, but small shrimp and small crabs(think pom poms).I agree with @eatbreakfast.

Small shrimp like sexy shrimp? Can they pick the legs off hermit crabs? You would think if that was possible few people would be able to keep hermits.They can't eat snails and have a difficult time hunting hermit crabs, but small shrimp and small crabs(think pom poms).
