Arc Eye Hawkfish (Paracirrhitus arcuatus)

The Arc Eye Hawkfish is named for the beautiful arc/arch marking over the eye.  Like most Hawkfish they can become an aggressive hunter, perching on the rocks. This Hawkfish can reach up to 6 inches and will require an aquarium of at least 50 gallons. They should be placed last in your aquarium as they become very territorial and will attack new additions. The Arc Eye Hawkfish is not reef safe as they will eat crabs, shrimp, anemones, and small fish. Their diet consists of meaty foods.

This fish is guaranteed for live arrival.
