Snowflake Eel and Reefs....

[Badkharma]

Will a snowflake eel live peacefully in a reef tank? I realize it will probably consume all shrimp/slow fish (gobies, etc), but will they eat corals/anemones/etc?? I'm not planning on putting one in; but I am curious since they can be so peaceful compared to the other species of moray...

Yes it will be fine. Eels don't eat corals or anemones. You might not even have trouble with small fish. Snow flakes are pebble toothed morays and their main food is crustaceans. Unless it gets confused at feeding time or is starving fish should be fine.

Sweet! Now maybe I might consider this. My coworker has a SFE and a cleaner shrimp that jumps on his face and cleans it, so I had to ask...
