Default Hawkfish

What's the story on Hawkfish? I've heard they are great fish for the reef aquarium. Any threat to the other fishes or invertebrates?

I have 2 hawkfish in my tank with a few shrimp and they don't bother them. My shrimp are quite large though and the fish still fairly small so this may change in the future as the fish grow.

I also have some shrimp with my fella, but of a decent size. I think its kinda hit & miss with them, you take your chances with them. He's one of my fav's.
