The Longnose Hawkfish is a favorite among reef aquarists due to its striking red pattern, elongated snout, and charismatic perching behavior. This fish naturally rests among gorgonians and branching corals, where its unique body shape allows it to hunt small prey and observe its surroundings.
At TSM Aquatics, each Longnose Hawkfish completes a 30-day quarantine, ensuring it arrives healthy, eating, and acclimated to aquarium life. This species does well in reef tanks with sturdy rockwork or coral branches for perching.
