Blueline angel

[Thomashtom]

Do you think this Blueline angel can be eaten by a pair of black ribboned eels about 45 inches and 32 inches. It will be temporary till set up a 265 gallon maybe about a week? Clown trigger is about 5 inches for reference Thanks

Although eels can eat objects larger than their mouths I don’t see a threat

Thanks I will keep them well fed!

 

[i cant think]

I wouldn’t say it’s a threat. I’d say because the blue line is rather tall they wouldn’t look at it as food and eels tend to go after inverts more than fish. Maybe a small enough fish like a elongated 2” bottom dweller like a goby or blenny would be more at risk.

How big do these get in captivity?
