Q: how big does the eel grow do bot call

Asked by: matthew - 1/14/2020

A: Snowflake Eel Scientific Name: Echidna nebulosa Reef Compatibility: With Caution Minimum Tank Size: 50 gal Max Size: 24” Food/Feeding: Carnivore Notes: This is a very hardy eel, but an escape artist. A 50 gallon or larger aquarium with plenty of live rock and a tightly fit canopy is ideal. Most of the eels that are lost in an aquarium are due to poorly sealed tanks. The Snowflake Eel is safe to house with any fish it cannot easily swallow. It can be housed with some invertebrates, like anemones and corals, but not crustaceans. The wild Snowflake Eel is a nocturnal predator, ambushing fish and crustaceans. In the tank, it will take frozen or freeze-dried krill, fish, shrimp, and most meaty foods. It can be taught to hand feed, although this should be done with caution, as it can inflict a painful bite.
