my point on longnose hawks is that they shouldnt be on the list at all. Very hardy which is againt the reason for the thread i believe.
butterflies are always a touchy subject. It would take a while to get into the depths of butterflies

If this were a list only for fish that aren't hardy then I'd agree with you, but it's not. It's on there because many of them jump out of aquariums, moreso than any other fish we commonly keep IME. They're also notorious for eating ornamental shrimp as are other Hawkfish. In the notes it says they are hardy so I don't think many people are going to be confused as to why it's on there.
