I'm Eel Crazy, look at this one


I saw this Eel on liveaquria, I wish I had the money to buy this EelHe would have it's own tank!
http://www.liveaquaria.com/diversden...9319&siteid=20

What are some Eels that won't grow over 12" inches and won't eat fish?
The snowflake grows bigger and will sooner or later eat fish, the moray grows very big and moves rocks around even more than the snowflake.

One of our local club members bought a pair. They had their own large tank. Then one day, In his own words, "The B***h killed the male! When last I saw him he still has the female by herself. They are beautiful but darned expensive.
