I have a green chromis and a yellowtail damsel. I heard there hardy and fairly compatible. Anyone have any?

I don't now, but have in the past. They worked out well for me. I had the long nose and the cirrhi both of which are small. They left the shrimp alone. They do tend to perch on the corals some.

I've had a scarlet hawk for about 5 years. I don't think he will bother either of your fish. He may eye up any small shrimp you have, though...reef safe, otherwise.

Awesome fish...he's definitely my fav.

I have a Pixy hawk in my 65. He's a butt head. He killed my largest cleaner shrimp and is constantly pearching all over my corals annoying them. I'm going to try to catch him at the end of the semester.

I have a long tailed hawkfish, and it seems to be a hardy fish, sits around alot on basically anything, the other day it was hanging upside down on a leather. Mine started eating the first day and seems to be doing well

I like it

I had one for about 1 1/2 years before it mysteriously vanished. Fun fish to watch.
