Emerald525 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Thanks Jeff! Always great to talk to you! Has anyone else gone in for one thing and then ended up with something completely different? I will post a picture up here in a bit! It's a nice final addition to my tank as far fish! Can anyone guess what it is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerald525 Posted July 31, 2015 Author Share Posted July 31, 2015 Okay here's the picture. I took it while he was still in the bag because I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to find him very easily in the tank... It's a beautiful golden dwarf moray eel! My final addition as far as fish! I hope he plays nice with my fire shrimp because I really like Carlos. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragon Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Awesome pickup! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Yeah, I have 2 smaller cleaner shrimp. Mine is adult size and still doesn't bother anyone. In fact, I rarely see my cleaner shrimp because they stay with the eel, cleaning it and eating it's food when I feed it. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't pass up the deal that Jeff gave me on him! I didn't even know he was there he hides so well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Yeah you probably won't see him much, they are very cryptic. Mine has gotten to the point though, he comes out and does laps around the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted July 31, 2015 Author Share Posted July 31, 2015 I just threw in some frozen food and he's already eating! They are just so cool! I heart eels!???? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reefnjunkie Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Mines a disappointment, only sticks his head out of his cave :( To bad since they are really neat- look for a sale thread when I tear the tank down Nice pick up Kim 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I use a chopstick to feed mine, he's blind as a bat so I bump his nose. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think in your big tank it would be hard to find. In a 20 gallon there are less hiding spaces. So far he is out quite a bit. Pretty cool seeing him slinking around. I use a chopstick to feed mine, he's blind as a bat so I bump his nose. Lol What do you feed yours Matty? I used to feed my snowflake eel scallops. Here's a crappy cell phone picture of him poking his head out! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spectra Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I was going to say an eel as you were talking about it a few days ago Kim.... Looks like a winner to me! Oh and as for the pic he looks more pissed off to me than just sticking his head out Looks like he wants to bite something...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
