The Flame Hawkfish has a brilliant red body and a black band that runs along the base of the dorsal fin. It has big bulging eyes outlined in black.
The Flame Hawkfish is very alluring to most aquarists. They will mainly perch on rocks and wait eagerly for food to come by. The Flame Hawkfish does well in a reef aquarium, provided there are no invertebrates or feather dusters. It will also act aggressively toward fish that inhabit the bottom in its domain. This may not be a problem in larger tanks. Provide plenty of live rock to inhabit.
Most hawkfish will eat a variety of frozen meaty foods. Try to train your hawkish to eat Ocean Nutrition Pellets for a healthy diet.
