Garden eels there peaceful and reef safe but require a thick sand bed
I've never cared for them but at least 50 gallons as they reach 18 inches usually and a sand bed of 6 inches at least most of the time there whole body will be under the sand accept for 1/4 or so as the bob and gaze out of the sand. It's quite cool to watch
Are they difficult to care for though, I would conceded getting one if they arnt hard to keep alive, I have a 70 gallon with a sand bed that's maybe 3-4" at some parts and about 6" at others
Ours have been very easy to care for, we have one corner of the tank that the sand slopes up to 6", we feed roe and mysis to the tank and they are usually pretty quick to snag the pieces as the go byI can't imagine there to hard to care for. Prolly shy. Would need to feed the other fish first so the food can sink to there area with out other fish scaring them
thanks, I've seen those for really cheap where I live and I love them. But is 45 gal enough or do I still need moreGarden eels there peaceful and reef safe but require a thick sand bed
Its a very long tank and decently wide.. I think ill try one as I live in Asia and fish doesn't cost a fortune... I will try my utmostI think that would be fine. As long as it's not a tall tank but long or wide with plenty of sand area for them to hide in
K thxI'd get at least a pair or a small group
can you plz explain fish safe. Is it fish safe to neon damsel size? And can I keep a skunk cleaner shrimp with it. Thx for listening!You could always go with a golden dwarf eel from Hawaii....by far the most Reef safe of the eels.
