Hawkfish in a BC29?

Is a BC29 large enough to house a Hawkfish? I am thinking either Flame Hawk or Longnose Hawk. How compatible are these fish with other tankmates (I already know they like to eat shrimp but I don't have any so that's no big deal)...do they bother corals? Everyone says they have great personality.
 
I only have a Flame Hawk so I can't comment on the longnose, but I think a Flame would be okay if they were the only fish in the tank (maybe 1 or 2 other small fish at most-- put the hawk in last). If I was going to set up a tank with one fish, a Flame Hawk would be a good choice-- very much like an aquatic dog. They don't eat corals but they like to sit on them. Mine hangs out in my acros and sometimes lounges on my open brain coral like its a couch.
