    Hawiian Dragon Moray

    I have a 12-14 inch Dragon Moray that I need to sell immediately. It cost over $750 and need to sell for $650. It is much more attractive than the one listed for sale for $800 on this site. He is eating very well and if you do any research on these eels they are very hardy and do well in...

    Finally Pictures of the stuff on my live rock

    Thanks, now I can search for it to see what it is and if I want to keep it or not. Currently it is a nice maroon color like in the photo's but you do see the green when it is closed up and flat. Also what is the deal with the sweeper like tentacles? They have only appeared in the last couple...

    Evicting dam-sels from a reef tank?

    I had two green chromis and couldnt catch them with half the water removed and all the rock but after I added a dragon moray they were gone within a week. Honestly I didnt think he would be able to catch them but they are gone and they didnt wind up on the floor.
