Yeah, that's mostly why I never have tried them. Also need cooler temps ideally.

Spotted gardne eel

Very cool, my wife always wanted some after we saw them at the Florida aquarium.

 

[siner94]

Yeah, I believe they get pretty massive though haha (long)

 

[OrionN]

Garden eel stays fairly small but need a deep sand bed to live in.

Not a good picture, but my pair of meleagris leopards are certainly a contender for 'favorite' fish. They live in the refugium because I cannot catch them. The male, particularly, is very twitchy and lightning fast ... he'll dive into the sand at the first sign of 'danger'. Of all the leopards, the meleagris male is my favorite .... a true peacock.

Did you have a hard time getting this fish to eat and how is he with your corals?

Yes he nearly died trying to get him to eat - eventually got him on live brine, then to brine, then mysis. eats anythng now. In a softy only tank so picking corals is not an issue. I recommend keeping a few brown acroporas in the tank when trying to get the fish onto frozen food

Where is the cheapest place to buy some of these guys?
