Will a Flame Hawkfish eat my Sexy Shrimp ?

[bane]

What do you guys think??

I have 2 Tobies which do not touch the shrimp cause my tank inhabitants are very well fed. .....

So it is possible to break stereotype.

Just wondering if anybody has luck

Each fish will have different personality's..I Have a Red Flamehawk for 2+years with 2 cleaner shrimps no prob...Just keep an eye on them..cheers!

yes it will, cleaner shrimps are known as "doctor" in the wild therefore to the fishes there is an understanding.

sexy shrimps no doubt will be eaten.

you are unable to tell when the fish wants to eat what and when it prefers to eat and even when it is hungry.

[ReDDeviLs]

Nobody can answer that question because Marine Species are weird in their unique characteristics..
