My Tank Build
#1
So I picked up my fish tank today!!! But it came with a 1 foot snowflake eel. Just wondering if you guys think I should keep it or trade it in to the LFS. Its been living with a clown fish peacefully. But I plan on keeping inverts and other small fish in the future. You guys think I should risk it?

Anybody have a snowflake in their reef? Please share

I have a snowflake the only time he gets roudy is when it smells foot then he blindly chases some fish around but they never get bit or anything he is to slow and blind to get them

As for inverts i have no idea

i used to have a small one and it did not chase any of the fish.... too bad it carpet surfed :(

i think it's too slow to catch a fish anyways, unless the fish was already dying. now inverts, i think it'll eat your shrimps for sure
