The Snowflake Eel is one of the most beautiful morays, and inhabits caves and crevices throughout the reefs. In the wild, it can grow to 90cm; most captive specimens will not exceed 60cm.
This is a very hardy eel, but an escape artist. A 200 litre or larger aquarium with plenty of live rock and a tightly fit canopy is ideal. Most of the eels that are lost in an aquarium are due to poorly sealed tanks. The Snowflake Eel is safe to house with any fish it cannot easily swallow. It can be housed with some invertebrates, like anemones and corals, but not crustaceans.
The wild Snowflake Eel is a nocturnal predator, ambushing fish and crustaceans. In the tank, it will take frozen or freeze-dried krill, fish, shrimp, and most meaty foods. It can be taught to hand feed, although this should be done with caution, as it can inflict a painful bite.
