Took a few more tonight.. I like these a little better:
  The nice thing about this fish is he obliges and sits still long enough for me to get a photo in focus. I tried taking a picture of my potter's angel tonight and I just ended up deleting about 24 pictures of an orange and blue blur. Man she is a swimmer

Cool pictures Tony, its nice when they pose for the camera.
I've been debating one of those but I admit I don't really know much about them.

They're a pretty docile fish for the most part. They are a predator of pods so there will be skirmishes with other fish that are well. My sixline had a problem with him and beat him up the first day, the second or third day the flame beat him up back and they've gotten along ever since. The problem there is that my sixline is a bully, not the flame hawk. The sixline was a problem to my potters angel as well until the potters fought back and won (basically he needs to have the snot kicked out of him to learn to leave a fish alone). He actually killed a mandarin. So sixlines are a potential problem, but I'd say the flame hawk is not a problem,
However, hawkfish are also reputed to be able to take down ornamental shrimp, so if you have shrimp (cleaners, peppermints, fire, etc.) that would be a consideration..

Have you ever kept a manderine and a flame hawk at the same time?

Great pics Tony, I'm still struggling with a new camera and I appreciate the great shots by members here.
My flame hawk is the biggest character in my tank, he gets chased around once in awhile by the flame angel but whenever I'm doing something near the tank he's right there watching. He's never bothered my shrimp or chased another fish. On a side note has anyone noticed that their fish hide when there is a new face looking at the tank? When it's just me they come out begging.

That depends on who's face is looking into the tank.
 They swim away when my two years old comes near.
