[QUOTE="lion king, post: 10369328, member: 70940"] As long as the fish are too large for them to get down their throat. Here's how you spot internet folklore, when someone says their snowflake ate a 5"trigger, laughable. Pebble tooth eels have rows of blunt teeth for crushing shells and such from crustaceans, they can not grab a fish with their teeth and wrestle them down. Any fish must be swallow size. It's most important to break them of their wild streak when 1st acquired, as long as you are not risking them with really small fish or you start with a really large eel, this will not be an issue. They will likely join in on eating the ghost shrimp that you feed, maybe a guppy but even less likely they will try and get a molly. You do have to take a bit more of hands on approach in feeding live to multiple predators. You must make sure everyone eats. I feed 5 predators live in a 90g, I use a feeding stick to herd mollies or ghosties and to block the fuzzy, which a royal piggie pita. [/QUOTE]
