KZread just showed me this video-bittersweet as my snowflake eel died two months ago, pretty tragically, actually, I had him for 17 years. What a character. He was 24" long at the end, the size of a pencil when we got him. King of the tank. I hope yours has fared well. Cheers!

Sorry for the loss. And sorry to ask this but there isn't a whole lot of info on them. How did you care for it? Food, homing, and keeping it calm with other fish.

reminds me a had a snow flake and a leopard eel in the same tank years ago

Love the Coris Wrasse. I have a juvie Melanurus and will be adding a Leopard Wrasse will be added. I have vids of my 90 gallon on my channel.

how much do you spend on food a month for the eel? how many times a week do you feed? also what does the other fishes you have eat?

How often do you feed the eel?

how fast does she grow?

A puffer with coral?

I heard they would eat other fish in the tank. I’m thinking about getting me one

Tank is long been sold but I had a pair of D120 full spectrum Chinese Leds.

Could you tell me a little more about this tank setup? Getting into saltwater and really want something like this. Read that you sold it, but hoping you can offer some guidance.

i had a huge tank years ago i think the secret is not to overstock with fish using enough filters so you never need to change the water and carry out daily water checks things may have changed since the 1980s

Tongs. They're 100 % plastic and won't rust. My brand is Laguna brand. Ehiem are the same thing and easier to find.

I. Thinking of getting a snowflake eel. So, if I want to have a Snowflake eel, are there any fish or invertebrates I should avoid putting in the tank because either it will attack the eel, or the eel attacks it. Or maybe even coral that could hurt the eel?

BLizardLeLizard ive heard they can eat smaller fish and shrimp. Ive got mine with a a damsel, clownfish, and fire shrimp (among other larger fish) but he hasnt touched anything. I think as long as they dont go hungry you wont have an issue. Regular feedings are key

No it was harmless to the other tank mates. But you have to ensure you don't add shrimp or anything. It would eat them
