![]() Surprised the hawkfish can't find a rock crevice somewhere to hide. You could try adding a small piece of PVC pipe for him to take shelter for a while.

![]() There are loads of places for the Hawk to hide, I have ceramic rock walls all along the back of the tank with lots of platforms....everywhere she goes she gets pinned in by the 2 clowns. They follow it around...
Now my Starry Blenny is getting in on the action, guarding the Hawk into a corner of the rock wall... I am hoping this is just a territory establishment game and they figure it out... it got pretty serious there with the Hawk actually grabbing the clown's fin and pinning it to the sandbed. I thought maybe the clown would have learned it's lesson there but alas they are still at it. |

![]() That's interesting I just did the same thing a couple weeks ago and my flame hawk and clowns actually hang out together. Your clowns obviously have a spot or rock in the tank they like. I would try moving some aqua scraping around in the tank.

![]() Tape a mirror to the side of the tank. Both the Clownfishes and the Blenny should have such a strong distaste for conspecifics that they should be well distracted. In the meantime, turn of the lights on the tank so the Hawkfish can relax a bit.

![]() Mirror trick seems to be working, at least they are distracted, thanks.

![]() You're welcome. Leave the mirror on there for a week or so. That will give the Hawkfish time to settle in and hold his own as well as allow the other fish to settle down.
