Oxycirrhites Typus
Hawkfish should be added to aquariums with plenty of rock work. Adult Oxycirrhites Hawkfish lack a swim bladder. Be sure to provide ample ledges, caves, cracks and crevices should be provided in order for them to perch and hide. Most Hawkfish are small, hardy and quite colourful making them a good addition to a home aquarium. All Hawkfish start life as a female with the largest most dominant fish becoming a male. Hawkfish are carnivores and will consume very small fish and other invertebrates. Feed a varied diet of meaty and algae-based foods multiple times daily. Oxycirrhites Hawkfish are somewhat feisty and will defend their territory, house one per aquarium. Oxycirrhites should be housed with tank mates that are not easily harassed. Provide an aquarium with a tight-fitting lid as they may jump.
Long Nose Hawkfish show red and white with horizontal and vertical red stripes. Long Nose Hawkfish can grow up to 13cm in length.
We recommend a minimum aquarium size of 200L or larger for this species.
