Falco Hawkfish

[wavemaster]

Just got one of these and a diamond goby for my biocube 29. They are in with 2 aggressive clownfish and a blood shrimp. Anyone have experience with a falco hawkfish? All I know is that they are one of the best choices for a reef tank as far as hawkfish go.

Had one it was great with all my fish untill i added a yellow watchman goby ,beat the snot out of the poor guy for no reason but was otherwise very peacefull.

Say bye bye to your shrimp. The falco will eat it when it molts

Funny thing was it was in a tank with 5 smaller cleaner shrimp at the LFS. If he gets my blood shrimp, that would be an expensive meal. Did one get your blood shrimp?

If he gets along with the other fish I think its worth the risk.

I had one for years in my 90 and was completely peaceful never touched anything shrimp included

I too had one for years and it never touched a thing either including shrimp. A entertaining fish to watch. Ill be getting a long nosed hawk once my dottyback finally dies
