Flame Hawkfish vs Peppermint and Skunk Cleaner shrimp

[PotRoast]

I also have a flame hawkfish in qt.

I have peppermint and skunk cleaner shrimp in the main tank.


If I put the hawk in the main, will it eat my shrimp?

Depends on how big your Hawkfish is but I'd guess that your shrimp would be toast regardless.

I watched two red cleaner shrimp die in 5 seconds when I introduced them to my flame hawk. All he did was kill them and leave them lying on the bottom. Fastest $50 I ever wasted not to mention the needless deaths of the shrimp. Dang it, it still ticks me off.
