He's just doing what he's programmed to do just like my clownfish bites me whenever I put my hand in the tank. Liveaquaria says they will harrass tankmates and eat small fish and crustaceans. It's nothing personal. Do you have another tank you set up for him? They sure have a lot of personality and are really cool looking.

Dang, how big is he? Was he killing small peaceful fish or what? They aren't real friendly, I have that pair of flame hawks but they don't cause problems, the other fish can hold their own. Did you try leaving the top off? Hawks are bad jumpers, I lost one a few years ago like that.

I had to do that 2x over in my Aquapod to catch out fish and that sucks, I would hate to do it in a big tank. You should be paying them to take it!
