Received the Oman Hawkfish in good condition. It’s active and curious, and has adapted well to the 30-gallon tank. The fish is not overly aggressive and seems to coexist with corals and other small fish. A great addition to a beginner reef setup.
Wendy Vaughan –
The fish arrived healthy and has been active since setup. It’s slightly more active than expected, but not aggressive. I keep a close eye on it around smaller invertebrates. Overall, a solid choice for a reef tank.
John Davidson –
This hawkfish is a striking addition to my tank. It’s calm most of the time and only shows mild aggression when defending territory. The size is within the expected range, and it’s easy to maintain.
