The Flame Hawk could be a hazard to the peps, especially if it is a large one and they are small. Once the peps are used to the tank they should be able to avoid Mr. Hawkfish since they hide during the day. Since peps are nocturnal there is a chance they could do the job at night with out getting eaten.
If you want to try the peps my advice would be to get the largest you can find, feed the tank heavily the day before you get them and add them at least an hour after lights out. Preferably when the tank is very dark and Mr. Hawkfish has gone to bed.
Thanks Carmen. I agree... local is best.
