BigB - he is awesome. Are those things over him really part of his spines? What kind is he?

Dwarf hawkfish, or Falco hawkfish. Cirrhitichthys falco
similar to Cirrhitichthys oxycephalus pixie/coral hawkfish.
I like this species because they only get up to 2.5 in. and are less likely than other hawks to consume your inverts.

I'm thinking of getting a pixie hawk...there supposed to not eat inverts like others

No, due to their small size they are less likely to though. Many people think the longnose hawk is also good but it can actually open it's mouth very wide.
