Hawk Fish

Hawk fishes are smallish predators that readily adapt to aquarium life. Most species rarely grow more than 7.5-10crn (3-4in) in length, so as long as they are not housed with tiny fish or smallish shrimps, they can be put with most other available animals. Hawk fishes spend most of their time perched on rocks and ledges watching the world go by - the yare not 'dozy' like lion fishes, for instance, but alert and upright, even though they are stationary. When something takes their interest, whether it be food or a threat, they dart off the rock in a saw like in order to investigate, hence their common name. These excellent community fish never cause problems with other inhabitants; if regularly fed they can live for tn any years in captivity.

The most spectacular is the langouste (Boyishness typhus), which can be housed safely with almost anything except shrimps. It is quite expensive. The spotted (Cirrhotic) is more reasonably priced; it probably embodies the ideal, typical beginner's fish better than any other.
