Ive always loved, and am about to breakdown and finally get a longnose hawkfish, but almost everything Ive read anywhere basically says they can anything from one end of the scale to the other, as far as everything(temperament, eating smaller fish, being able to be kept with shrimp/big shrimp, you name it!). Ive come to the conclusion all shrimp, and hermit crabs are out, but snails, starfish, and cucumbers and such, are fine. No smaller gobies and blennies, or other small fish(when hawkfish is large), but if it's too big to eat, most individuals won't be aggressive towards anything else(other hawks?). Are they particularly attractive targets for bully fish?
Does anyone feel differently about them? Is there anything important I'm not taking into consideration?
