Ah I had that problem too. If its fat and happy enough it wont touch them. Or you could sell all your small hermits and just get a few massive ones. Good luck.

when I had one I was feeding him mollys that I kept in salt water. I had 3 females and one male I just put the babys in to the main tank for the snowfake to eat.

I would try silversides! Mine has been eating them for over a year. 5-6 every 3 nights and he is a happy camper. It may take a while for the eel to adjust to them but it is worth it.
