The Falco Hawk has a colorful personality to go along with their bright body. Usually out all day, they perch atop a ridge of rock or among the branches of a living coral. When another fish encroaches upon their territory, they rush out to chase off the offender. They are usually quite tolerant of fish that swim higher in the water column, and those that avoid their territory.
