The man from saltwaterfish.com told me that the dwarf moray is not good for corals or fish. But I heard the opposite. Who do I believe? lol I see a lot of people with the dwarf moray that have corals and fish

I say you always have to look at your source of information. If you do your research you will find many success stories of people with dwarf goldens in their reef tank, I don't believe I've come across one negative. My #1 lfs here recommended one to me, but I like the fang tooth morays. Nothing is 100% guaranteed but these guys are one of the safest bets.

I have one in my 150 reef. He has been great in there. He is actually sharing the cave area created by the pistol shrimp that was there first, and is still in there. He eats raw pieces of salmon, scallop, etc. from the end of a bamboo skewer.

I just bought one and hour ago I'm so excited. Where do I get a stick to feed him?

You can use a rigid air line tube from an lfs, but I like using this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006JM0DK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

If anyone knows what site sells these eels please let me know I really want a golden Dwarf moray

Where do you live?

Snowflakes are another good choice. Although a lot of people have great success with the golden dwarves. A 75 is fine for either, but I wouldn't suggest both :P
I'd stay away from the ribbon eel that someone above suggested. Chances are it won't eat, it'll die and you'll lose a fish and fair share of money. They are getting easier to keep in captivity, but are still notorious for not eating. I would not suggest getting one unless you've kept quite a few morays in the past and other difficult fish.

All eels are coral safe. The biggest issue is with clumsier eels who may accidentally bump corals and knock them to the bottom of the tank.

I had one in my 30 gallon mixed Reef. They are incredible Reef tank additions. They generally won't exceed 12-14" in home aquaria. I kept mine with a few smaller fish and a cleaner shrimp with no issues. They are a more secretive eel than most others, but mine was still very personable and would always poke his head out from wherever he was hiding when I'd come by.

I can't stress enough the need for a tight fitting lid. I had a screen top on my tank and he still found a way out, which is how I lost him.

They are great Reef inhabitants and I plan to acquire another one for my 80 gallon SPS Reef, but not until I have my ClearView lid.

Contact ReefWise they generally have them in stock. I was in their shop last week and they had two. If you can swing the cost a pair would be very cool!
