Hey all! I was wondering what would be the best food(s) to feed a blue ribbon eel? I pestered my boss and told him I would pay for it if we added one to our tank, and I’ve been trying to feed him every day a pretty wide variety of options. He seems super healthy, he has three places where he...
Hi all, I have a question I’m hoping those that have cared for these eels will chime in. As the title says, can a Japanese Dragon, Fimbriated yellow head and Banana eel be housed together in the same aquarium? I would love a dedicated eel tank 200-300 gallons with my 3 favorites. If all 3 are...

I have a 125 reef tank with 35 gallon sump with an undulated moray, miniatus grouper, and picasso triggerfish. My cleanup crew consists of a handful of turbo snails (was around 20 now much less because of the triggerfish) and a horshoe crab and chocolate starfish. I have had much luck with many...
Good day everyone,
I haven’t found much about treating eels that become injured. I believe there may have been a squabble for a piece of food and the snowflake was bitten on the top of his head by the tessalata, barely missing his eyes, imagine a bonnet, that’s what it looks like. It is red and...

Hello -
I wanted to introduce myself.
I'm out of Mission Viejo, California. I've got a 150G salt tank with Moray Eel's (Tessallota, Yellowhead, Banded Snake Eel, and 2 Snowflakes). The tank is getting to be too small for all the eels so I've ordered a 400G with 100G sump. The tank is gonna be...

I am considering getting an eel for my 150 gallon reef tank. Anyone have any suggestions on eels that are reef safe and not hostile or able to keep non hostile against other tank mates?
I am in the planning phase for a small tank to start and a large community tank later on. My stocking plan for the predator tank idea is the following: 2 maroon clownfish, 1 coral croucher, 3 pyjama cardinals, 1 tomini tang, 1 convict tang, 1 blue hamlet grouper, 1 toby puffer, 1 coral beauty...
I've got a 112 gallon IM reef system sitting in a crate in my living room ready to be set up, 3x3 footprint, and I'm wanting some advice on how many pebbletooth eels I can keep in it realistically. I would ideally like one each of snowflake, skeletor, banded, and chainlink, but I am slightly...
Getting:
Grey smooth hound shark
I have a few questions, hoping you guys could answer.
1. How aggressive are they?
2 what, and how often do you feed yours?
3. How much lbs of rock can I put in, and how should I scape it, ex: all on back wall, or piled on bottom…?
4. $500 for a 12” one a...

Hi,
So my father is currently trying to treat an eel in a quarantine tank. At first he was put in there to monitor his eating because he wouldn't take food from him and now he's being treated for an infection because his gills are showing red coloration. His gills weren't red when he was first...

Snowflake eel
Dwarf lion fish (maybe?)
Dwarf angel
Trigger

Hi! So I really, really, really love eels. I want to get a snowflake, but I don't really have space to set up a second tank right now, so it would have to go in my reef, currently housing LPS, 2 clowns, a big goby (like 4-5 inches long) and a tomini tang. no shrimp, but lots of dwarf hermits and...
I’m looking at stocking my 300G Fowler with a Clown Trigger, Tesselata Eel, Emperor Angel and maybe a banded cat shark.
From what I know I believe these will all be fine together but have heard some opinions that the clown trigger may beat up the shark.
Looking to get opinions or experience on...
Just curious if I’m doing this right. I have a currently 20 inch long zebra moray eel in my 310 gallon. After a week in my tank he’s finally started eating. I fed him a piece of raw uncooked table shrimp. And then 3 days later I fed him a scallop. Plan on feeding him again again tomorrow. I have...
Has anyone ever experience fish bullying an eel? I put a 20 inch long zebra moray eel into my 8 foot long 310 gallon mixed reef Saturday afternoon and as soon as my gem and pair of yellow tangs see my zebra eels head start to pop out of any rock cave or crevice they go after it turning sideways...
Looking to get ideas and thoughts from those of you that have kept zebra morays in the past, more specifically in a reef tank. Was the zebra moray any kind of an issue for you? Did you have to do anything special for your zebra moray? Did it demolish your cuc or were they okay? What was the...
