Flame hawkfish and Midas blenny

[Coralgurl]

Are these 2 fish capatible? Plan is for both to go into my 55 gl tank.

Thanks

Iis the midas much smaller than the hawk? I just had a longnose hawk eat a very small orchid pseudochromis during QT

I kept the two together though it was in a 180g

They are about the same size. I want them both in the same tank, if they go in at the same time, will that help? They are both acclimating ATM. If they need to be separated then I'll put the hawkfish in the 180.

IMO they should be fine.

I have a 3" Flame Hawk, if he's not well fed, he'll snack on a hermit crab, otherwise they are left alone if my flame hawk is well fed. I don't keep any shrimp in my tank, as I imagine they would also be hawkfish meals.

Thanks! There's a couple hermits in there, I'll make sure he's fed well. He ate right away, haven't seen the blenny out yet.

I had a falco hawkfish that was fine with a bunch of fish that where a bit smaller then him , then i got a yellow watchman goby and he kicked the crap out of the poor guy. So they are fine with will some fish and not fine with others.

Yay, they are both out tonight. Neither seems interested in the other so hopefully they remain peaceful. Both are pigs and ate well, love the new color they bring to the tank. I don't think I need to add anymore fish to this tank now, 7 fish is enough.
