Hi everyone! I’ve loved aquariums pretty much my whole life, and I’ve always wanted a saltwater tank (I’ve only done freshwater till now) so I finally caved and set up a biocube to test the water. I’ve taken care of other aquariums for the past 3 years and my new job is all aquatics. I know...

Hello everyone, My long term goal is to have either a snowflake eel or a zebra eel in my 135 gallon FOWLR tank (Reefer 625). I like that the zebra eel is reef safe compared to the snowflake eel, but I'd also like to see it's head pop out once in a while not just around feeding time. For those...

Hello all! I am trying to find a new home for an absolutely stunning snowflake eel, and will most likely cry like a baby when he leaves but that’s a seperate issue (haha) I’ve had this guy for 1.5 years and absolutely love him but he needs a bigger home. I am absolutely not selling him to anyone...

I have a snowflake eel and I believe he has external roundworms attached to him! We were using prazi pro but they haven’t touched these critters on my snowflake eel! Seems like they have multiplied now and started out teeny tiny and are gradually getting bigger. They are stringy brown worms with...

Hello, I started my second tank today, a 20g long saltwater tank, and want to dedicate it to a snowflake eel. A lfs has a 4”-6” snowflake eel and was wondering if this sized aquarium would be an okay sized for the eel for about 6 months tops. Gonna be putting up our 90g in the summer sometime...

So to start my water is good. I have a 150 gallon predator tank. Stocking is two lighting maroons, porcupine puffer, bicolor goat, Snowflake eel, and a harlequin tusk. I have had the eel for about a month and half. I have never seen him come out (I know they spend most of their time hiding). I...

So yesterday I found out my royal gramma has ich unfortunately. It didn’t look to be a bad case of it and he is still eating and breathing well. Not sure how he got it but things happen I guess. I don’t currently have a quaretiene setup right now but I was planning on turning a spare 20 gallon...

Hi all. My brother and I are going to be new owners of a Snowflake Eel. I've done some research into owning the eel, 35% water change per week, feeding live/frozen food, tank size [55gallon if correct], likes coral base/dark hiding spots, only keeping one eel in the tank, etc. etc. I was...

Hello, I’ve got an 18” snowflake eel, who seems quite healthy, except for something that looks kinda like a tumor on the roof of her mouth. Seems to be growing. Still eating and doesn’t seem to have changed behavior. Anyone know if there’s anything I can or should do?

About 2 weeks ago I bought a snowflake eel from an LFS that had it eating krill just dropped into it's small tank (not from tongs or skewer). I introduced him into the tank and he has not eaten yet. At first I attributed it to getting accustomed to the tank and I did change my rock work a few...

So, I have a snowflake eel that I have been keeping for the longest time, in fact he's my first ever fish, or eel. He is 27 inches long and a diameter of 3 inches. I have always fed him Rod's Predator Blend ever since it came out, until now. He is WAY too big for Rod's food, it's like an...

So I have bought a ton of eels since I have started the hobby, they have tons of personality and my hawaiian dragon eel the first thing guests look at in my display reef. However, I have always thought eels were disease resistant, so I about I relatively healthy snowflake eel. Until he got nose...

So my eel has a swollen snout which appears to be mainly around the nostrils or the nose. My eel has been moving a lot more sluggish, losing a lot of yellow coloration, and can't even sense the food in front of him. He even looks smaller in general. I have been dosing a lot of vitamins (thiamin...

So, I just got a snowflake eel today from my lfs. He’s had him for 3 weeks and doing well. I fed him tonight. I was wondering how much should you feed him. Since he’s only like a foot if that maybe give or take some. I cut up a small raw shrimp and gave him about a third of that shrimp. Just...

Im wanting to buy a small snowflake eel to put in my 55 gallon long fowlr tank. At the moment I have two Occelaris clowns, one is about 2.5" and the other is 1", and one firefish goby that is about 3.5" along with a handful of small hermits. I realize the hermits will slowly dissapear with the...

This may be a silly question, but for those who have a snowflake eel, at what time do you guys feed your eel (not how often)? Just wondering.

So I have a massive snowflake eel in my tank that I'm considering selling but I dont know a good price for them at the size he is at. Most I find online is for 12" max, and mine is at least 30" of not more and a little bit bigger around than a golf ball. This guy eats 8 silverside almost every day.

Just felt like sharing a short gif of my snowflake eel eating a crawfish. (Yes I know it's bad for him long term, but it's just a treat.) https://gfycat.com/ActualAmpleIzuthrush
