small update......I rolled the dice a little this last w/e.....Ive always wanted a flame hawkfish and Ive always not bought one because Ive always had shrimp in the tank.....In V1 my mystery wrasse ended up taking out all the shrimp in the tank and I ended up gettin a geometric hawk......still a very cool fish and I really loved its behavior, but not a flame hawk......V2 has three or four peppermint shrimp, one cleaner shrimp and one fire shrimp and now a wee tiny flame hawk.......everything Ive read suggests that if the shrimp are introduced first and are of a larger size then the mix is sometimes do-able......my shrimp were in first, are of a larger size and the flame is only about 2"(smallest flame hawk Ive ever seen)......we'll see how things pan out.....






and a couple random close-ups
