Blood red hawkfish (Cirrhitops fasciatus)

[fishoholic]

Has anyone on here owned a Blood red hawkfish (Cirrhitops fasciatus)



My lfs has had one forever and I really like the looks of him but everything I read about them is that they may eat small fish, but I don't know how small of a fish they are talking about.

The fowlr tank he would go in has a small 1-2" fairy wrasse that I do not want to risk getting eaten. Just wondering if anyone had one before and if they really would eat a fairy wrasse or not or what. The blood red hawkfish in the store is about 3" and it really doesn't look like it would even be possible for him to eat a fairy wrasse, however I don't really know so I thought I'd ask. Maybe a very small clown goby or eviota goby but a wrasse????
