These guys ok together???

I was told that my Long Nose Hawkfish and Long Nose Butterfly would probably not get along...Is this true? I do not know a heck of a lot about either fish.

Thanks.

It's not true. They would be fine in a tank together.

[justinpsmith]

Yeah...They are in a tank together now. I just took the Butterfly out of QT and put him in the display. So far so good.

They'll be fine ;) Just make sure you have the top well covered, right down the smallest openings that you don't think a fish could jump through. Long Nose Hawks are notorious jumpers. I've lost more than I like to think about from jumping, even after thinking I had the top blocked off well enough.
