Anyone here have a Flamehawk?

I want to get one of these but I was not sure how sps would react if it perches on one of them. Also will it do well in a high flow tank since it does not have a swim bladder? Thanks!

I have one in my tank with a wavebox and tunze 6100's in a 75g. Most of my SPS are small frags and he doesn't perch on them. He does perch on my clams and they don't even react.

Good to know. Thanks!

I believe that they may pick off any cleaner shrimp if you have any.

Except for one big CBS, I have no other crustys in my tank thanks to interceptor.

I have two (2) Oxycirrhites typus in my SPS tank without a problem.

They do perch in a couple of Acros but I haven't seen any adverse reactions.

I've kept one for a couple of years. Havent seen any negative effects on the corals. Never touched any of the shrimps. cool fish

i had one for a while and when i introduced a fairy wrasse, the flame went after the wrasse and almost killed it. so, i had to pull the flame out of the tank and return it to the LFS. but, in the 2 months that i had it, it never harmed any of my corals by resting on them.

I have one and don't seem to have any negative effects to my SPS either.
