Anybody have this kind of fish in your reef tank, & the question is does it bother your shrimp ? because I've got skunk & fire shrimp in my tank both it's adult size I added this hawkish which is never had this fish before. I know flame hawk will go after your shrimp or small fish had experience before now I want your opinion guys appreciated & thanks:)

Live aquaria http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=15+34+199&pcatid=199 lists them as with caution. I've always been told not to keep them in a tank with small fish and small shrimps. It's also an individual fish thing. Some will go after things you don't want them too. Some won't.
You said you already put this into your tank? I hope you get a some won't fish. Good luck.

It seems pretty shy though my shrimp goes on top of this fish trying to clean but it swims away whenever all shrim goes on top of it. Yeah I know some day say on RC's it doesn't bother any shrimp only those small feather duster. Hopefully this fish will become a good citizen in my tank I will cross my finger :) thanks, how's your tank doing now?

We're still holding in there. I won't know til later today after I get home if all fish are accounted for today. I'll certainly be posting on my thread to keep everyone up to date.
