We recently found our Hawkers on the floor behind the tank. Hadn't seen him all day thinkin a hitchhiker on a new rock got him. Found him that night and I was very saddened. All the fish have their way about them, but the way the hawk watched us, it was like he was just a little more real. Just a ton of personality. I am confident we could have taught him tricks as much as he was motivated by food, lol. Not sure how he managed to jump out of the tank =(
