I know flame hawks like shrimp, but will they bother porcelain crabs?

I have flame hawk and a porcelin crab in a 40 gallon without issue. Although the porcelin crab does host a bubble tip anemone which the hawk doesn't go near. I added the flame when it was small to ward off any initial effects of eating other tankmates which seems to have worked. It doesn't bother anything that was added in before but does get curios on new additions. All fish are different. Some are model citizens while others are tank terrorists. My advice is that if you decide to try it, add the new additions to your tank with lights off at night to allow your crab to settle. Good luck.
