+o0zarkawater Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I am looking to get rid of my Spotted Hawkfish. I love this guy and have had him for over 4 years, but it's time for him to go. He really normally has a great personallity and I love the way he perches... but... He has been harassing my Sailfin Tang too much. He doesn't actually fight/nip him, just constantly bothers him. And it's not even that he is attacking him, just makes the sailfin dart to the other side of the aquarium where my giant RBTA lives. This makes me nervous. I swear that Sailfin spends almost as much time in the RBTA as the clowns do. I want to get a small school of anthias and I know he will bother them, so he is out! He is rather large 3-4" and FAT. He will eat any ornamental shrimp, so don't even try it. Also may pick on smaller fish. He would do best with fish larger than him. I am in Cedar Park, and will try to get him out as soon as I have a buyer. Will entertain trades for decent zoas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gig 'em @ NDstructible Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Personally knowing this fish, I highly recommend him as an addition to a larger tank. He's fun to watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I love hawkfish. I have some wrasses that would not get along with him though. :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+o0zarkawater Posted July 21, 2012 Author Share Posted July 21, 2012 Gone! Thanks Jake. Fishing at home is fun. I think next time we'll use a hook instead of a trap though. Probably be a little quicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Jakedoza Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 bahhh... I like the trap... He is just a smart fish.. Seems happy in the tank, caught him perching on my frag rack this morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
