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 marine aquariums. Warning, it will eat any fish that is not much larger than he is. He has killed and eaten three of my fish including a 3in blonde naso tang that I would never had thought he would be able to get his mouth around. Anyway, let me know if you are interested.

Can you put them together? I didn't think so...

Can you put what together?...Dragon Morays?...absolutely!
In the next few years, I'm planning a DME only tank...4 males, 4 females.
As of right now, my female DME has always been in tanks with other Morays and she's been just fine.
I wouldnt mind taking a look at the one Rusty is selling now, but he's yet to show any pics. Depending on how it looks, I might be interested.

when you add another to the tank make sure you take the one out that has been in there for awhile then add them both in together. after a period of time of course

Not trying to thread jack but...
So they're compatible with each other... what else do they work with? What do you have in with yours now?

Obviously, the larger the tank the better as you you'll have territorial issues, in a smaller tank, especially if you're not sure the --- of the specimen(s).
Just a short list of fish my female has been with, without any problems:
Triggers: Queens, Clowns, Durgeons, Blue Jaws
Puffers: 10" Porc
Lions: 15" Volitan
Groupers: Blue Lined
Morays: Whitemouth
Currently, mine is housed with a 30" Whitemouth Moray and a 5" - 6" Blue Line Grouper.
And...not to disagree with what Sulley said, but I've never had to remove mine, when adding other fish. People always say/think that Dragons are highly aggressive, but they're actually just the opposite. As long as they're not being picked on, they're perfectly content to share a tank with other fish and Moray species.

Sorry I need the cash, I have a 135gal reef also that is full and want to redistribute some of the wealth of life in that tank. Like the eel said I am going to set it up to host an anemone and pair of clowns.

Especially if the fish are small enough to fit in his mouth. They will take fish so big that they will position the fish so it goes in head first and then they will tie themselves in a knot to squeeze the fish to help digestion. COOL.
