A pair of Flame Hawkfish?

Fish?
If I'm not mistaken, I didn't think that it was possible to keep more than one Flame Hawkfish in a tank together. I ended up taking one from a fellow reefer as a last minute thing. We were both keeping our fingers crossed that they would just stay at opposite ends of the tank. Well, after a couple scuffels, they seem to be hitting it off. Thoughts?

It's so funny too. One will jet to one side of the tank and the other one is right behind. They're so cute together!
 
looks like a match made in heaven. I saw a site the other day that was selling pairs of fish that I thought were odd pairs. Theres exception for everything. Very nice. now you have twice the amount of personality in the tank
 
Tell me about it. These fish have very unique personalities. They remind me of a paranoid drug user. Shifty eyes, sudden moves, always chasin tail.
 
Granted my tank is big enough that we can get away with things others cant, but in our 1700g we introduced 5 more to the single one that was already present. A year later I think we have 4 or 5 left and have never seen them pay much attention to each other in any way. The one or two that have gone missing I attribute to being a small fish in a really big unfriendly pond, not to aggression from the same species.
