Moray Eel Compatibility

[Caleb1266]

I have an 8’ 150g and the current stock list includes:
1 9” Yellowhead Moray
1 7” Snoflake Eel
1 3” Emperor Angel
1 5” Red Tooth Trigger
1 6” Volitan Lion
1 3” Falco Hawkfish
1 5” Foxface
I would like to add another species of Moray and then that’s it for now. Any suggestions on an eel that doesn’t break the bank and can grow happily in an 8’ 150?

have you considered a japanese moray? they look scary as hell, but peaceful... prices vary depending on your location.

yellow head morays if its the 1 i'm thinking of are very agressive and will most likely kill everything

@Dragonreef202

you could get a breeding pair of snowflakes if you know their gender maybe. Make sure your tank has enough "caves" for multiple morays

Have you maybe tried a dwarf golden moray or a canary moray? I’d be very cautious with the 9” yellow head and the 3” emperor angel

golden dwarfs are almost impossible to get now

Oh….Haha oops. They are both rare, but my LFS has them every once in a while

Yes that’s the one, I feed him often and so far no major aggression.

Live aquaria has some barred morays for an exceptional price. The most expensive of the 5 is $120

I have a question, if I feed a baby moray a mealworm once will it affect it at all?
