Can I mix these?

I am looking for some characters in the tank?

Thanks

If you get a pistol shrimp with the goby and they build a home before the hawk starts picking on the pistol shrimp. you should be fine but hawkfish do live to pick on and kill shrimp.

Im not so sure how the Goby would do.

It might work if you got one of the more robust shrimp gobies.
