Bookmark or Share- Garden eels | Reef2ReefYou want spotted garden eels (black and white) not splendid garden eels (the orange ones). While you can keep splendid they do not fare as well as the spotted. Can't recall the scientific names off hand. Start with the eels then try and add other things later. You already know you need a deep sand bed, 8" is good.
- reef safe eels? | Reef2ReefAll eels are perfectly safe for corals but most will eat inverts and a large amount will eat fish. Snowflakes are a good start, but can get snappy when hungry. A great fish safe eel if you want larger fish, but if you want smaller fish you'll need to keep an eye on him. They can be kept in a 30 gal but should be kept in a 55 or bigger.
- Are snowflake eels considered "Reef Safe?" And other questions.Eels can be fun but they do require some individual care. Yes, they will eat most invertebrates, though ours did leave my turbo and trochus snails alone. Unfortunately, some snowflake eels develop a taste for fish. They're also rather sensitive in my experience. Would not call them a beginner fish. Canisters are like filter socks.
- Reef safe eels? | Reef2ReefI was wondering if any eels are safe to keep in a reef tank with a flame angle, neon dottyback, two clownfish in an anemone, two shrimp in an anemone, blue tang, fire fish, purple tang, and mandarin goby? I have heard that they will eat any small fish and shrimp. Are there any nice eels?
- Snake Eels: The Safe Moray Alternative? | Reef2ReefLike many eels, reproduction is not well known. Credit: Fab Dive In the Aquarium Aquarium: Snake eels require good water conditions at all standard values. They will suffer from osmotic shock, so acclimation is important if possible. These eels require either a soft sand bed/mud or some PVC pipe on the bottom.
