She really kicked the dog snot out of Hunter with ease. I mean, I don't even think she had to get off that bed in the pic.

Garden eels! Not for the faint of heart, but one of my top 3 goals is to keep garden eels.
 
The two most common ones are Hass (spotted) garden eels and Splendid garden eels. They require a deep sand bed, recommended minimum 6 inches. Multiple planktonic feedings per day (chopped/small mysis should do, but it's a lot floating around), and not recommended with stiff eating competition or overly active/aggressive fish. Very awesome to watch a garden of them, though!
