Sure! I'm glad it works. There's a big difference in the aggressiveness of flame & longnose hawkfish. That's why (IMO) there are very few rules on what you can keep with what. Someone, somewhere, has kept every possible combination together. I think when we take a critter out of its natural environment, anything can happen. But, when someone asks for advice, I prefer to go with the experts and the odds........but you never know for sure what will happen. IMO, a longnose will probably kill a cleaner shrimp, but sometimes, maybe not. A flame would be a better choice. IMO, a 14 gal is too small for a flame, but if it works for you, great!
