Neocirrhitus Armatus

Flame Hawkfish/Scarlet Hawkfish  -  These fish has been successfully kept in reef aquaria for many years.  It is generally reef safe however it should not be trusted with shrimps and in some cases snails and hermit crabs.  It is generally a quiet addition to the reef but certain more dominant individuals can be a problem to small gobies.  They spend most of their time perching on rocks and corals and can become quite tame if feeding is regular.
