Gaaah!!! Wendell, are those dragon morays?? Those look AWESOME!!
Myka - I have in this same tank an orchid dottyback. I was a little nervous at first about this guy but it seems the eel at this point is lower on the totem pole, if you can believe it. Both are rock burrow/cave dwellers so they sort of occupy the same territory and the dottyback is definitely not pleased about sharing, and will chase the eel if he pokes his head out too close to the orchid dottyback. I can see now though at this size, the eel cannot open his mouth enough anyhow. I even tried feeding him some sand eels, which are a fish about the size of a typical danio or tetra or something (maybe a little longer, but the same diameter/girth). He sized it up, and decided against it after he found he couldn't open up wide enough. Perhaps as they get bigger it becomes a worry though. I personally would also be worried about them in small tanks. Definitely need a canopy I think - losing my old one was a devastating loss especially after I thought I had taken enough steps to make his tank escape proof. In retrospect it was a mistake to make the overflow eel-proof - I'd much rather an eel find his way into the sump than onto the floor.  Quote:
