Anyone have any experience with these? I've read that they will eat snails, Hermit Crabs and some ornamental shrimp. I am considering one.

I've had one for about 4 years now. Very active, fun to watch. DEFINITELY will poach your shrimp of any kind.

I had one for about 2 yrs and it got very aggressive. I couldn't add any new fish to the tank, no matter how big or supposedly aggressive they were, the Hawk just killed them right away.

I have one as well
fun to watch, very alert love to perch all over the tank.

WILL eat your shrimp

I have a few crabs that are still alive and snails seem to dwindle but I have never actually caught the hawk doing it.

I have had issues adding new fish but I can't confirm what the cause of that is, so the hawk may be to blame
