![]() I have a snowflake eel in my FOWLR tank....he keeps to himself and doesnt bother the other fish I have.The Snowflake is one of the lesser aggressive of species. It has a fairly restful nature, is shy, but not so much as the Banded Moray (Echidna polyzona) or Zebra Moray (Gymnomuraena (formerly Echidna) zebra), and likes to hide with its head stuck out of its cubby hole most of the time. This eel generally will not disturb or be disturbed by other tank inhabitants, and can live communally with other eels as well. We feed our Juvie by hand it is quite neat to watch.....when he gets bigger, I dont think I'll stick my hand in there, as snowflake eels get quite agressive around feeding time! If you do decide to get one, make sure you have glass tops or egg crating onthe top of your tank cuz they are known to be escape artists! I dont have full tops and he has tried numerous times....I even had to whack him back into the tank once. Im constantly looking at the floor around my tank...just to be sure.....LOL! Good luck!
This is my guy Diego ![]()

![]() If you are still thinking about my Fimbriated Moray ... the bicolour angel and the Goby dont stand a chance
![]() As has been stated before ... keeping a eel well fed solves all kinds of problems ... but not putting temptation in front of a predator is wise advice too ![]()

Very difficult to get eating.But if you can get one already eating you may have a good chance of success.Not sure about reef compatible as far as small fish go.
