The Arceye Hawkfish is orangish-pink with a white line down the body and a bright orange ring, with a bluish border around the back of the eye. This species is an excellent choice for an aggressive community setting. This species is bold and predatory. Do not keep it with fish equal to, or smaller than its own length, because it can (and will) swallow them. Keep only one per tank unless you have a very large aquarium. Provide with structures to perch on and nooks and crannies to hide in.
Carnivorous, feeds on bottom-dwelling invertebrates and zooplankton. Provide a varied diet including preparations for carnivores
Completely safe with all corals, clams, etc., but will eat ornamental crustaceans and small fish
