So I am at a crossroads lol. I really want a golden dwarf moray eel. However, I cannot find any and apparently they are super rare. I have been contacting some LFS and they said they will look but no guarantee of course. So then yesterday I went to another LFS and saw a Snowflake eel that was like 4 inches and around the thickness of a straw lol. It was defintely the smallest eel I have ever seen. I did not even know you could buy them that small. So my question is how fast would he grow? My main interest in the golden dwarf is that they are apparently the most reef safe and smallest. But if this snowflake stays small for a long enough time then I am thinking about possibly getting this guy rather than waiting for an eternity to find the golden dwarf. My tank is a 40 gallon (2 clowns, midas blenny, yellow tang, and one cardinal that I am temporarily housing). But I also have an 80 gallon if need be. How long do you think this snowflake could be in my 40. Also, since he is so small theres no chance he gets any of the fish right? Thank you for all the help!
