The shrimp and crabs have a better chance if they were in the aquarium first. Flame hawks tend to regard them less as food if they were in before the flame hawk. However, you may find that adding any shrimp after the hawk is established is difficult. It also depends on the size of the flame hawk and its individual tendencies. IME, smaller flame hawks are much less of a threat to cleaner shrimp and crabs.
