A long nose hawk is totally reef safe, you've seen mine....although it's not red red like a flame. The flame hawkfish are more red but kinda turn into a ruby red as they age. There are lots of red fish in the wrasse family, most will be flashers and are super friendly, if you really want an angel and don't mind a few nips on sps here and there I say do it, for me I'd sacrifice owning and angel in a mixed reef as I cant stand tracy's and other Lps along with sps getting nipped....

My Flame Angel is a model citizen in my reef. Although my Coral Beauty was a little rude when I introduced the Flame Angel last year. But they get together well now.

Thanks for all the great input everybody
I'll have to talk it over with my better half Maybe Chris is right and we should stick to wrasses as I don't want to lose our Hector's goby to a hawk, and I don't want my corals irritated Besides, everyone needs a cleaner shrimp or 2, right ?
