Hello, everybody,
I have posted before about my 40g reef tank, the development of which has stalled somewhat. I have an arc eye hawkfish that's very young, only about 2.5 inches in length, and I'm pretty sure he's responsible for the empty shells in my tank. My CUC used to consist of astreas, ceriths, bumblebees, and hermit crabs. I had five of each, and with the exception of the larger astreas, everything else is down to just one or two. So I plan to get more astreas to help things. What other inverts can live with an arc eye hawkfish that'll get hungry? Or I am better off trying to rehome? I really want to build up this reef tank, but it'll be tough if my inverts are always at risk of consumption.
