Spotted Hawkfish (Cirrhitichthys aprinus)

White body covered in reddish-brown spots and tufted dorsal spines. Classic hawkfish behavior -- perches on elevated rockwork and corals, surveying the tank for food. Hardy and bold. Will eat ornamental shrimp and very small fish, so choose tankmates carefully.
