hey there its actually a white ribbon eel.....
hes a really doscile eel.... very hardy and easy to feed ive had him for 2 years now and hes really good in my reef tank.....
no problems with him so far im pleased....
theres a good article about them in this months Aquarium Fish magazine.... talk about how they are reef safe and that eel fans will love them since they are hardy and non agressive...

Dude, Where have I been all these years whence I haven't own nor even seen that eel. That is suh-weet!
I'll post a pic of my Gorgeous Juvy Volitan before he get's the big flush.
Seriously, he's going in a big bag and going to my buddies 125agressive.

yeah in the 2 years ive been in this hobby he was one of my first purchases from the LFS when i didnt know a thing about reef tanks all i knew was i wanted cool fish and eels....
the reason i got him was because he was the only kind like him that i seen.... i mean yeah i saw snowflake eels other colored ribbon eels some bi morays but i wanted something safe to be with other smaller fish and the lady at my LFS recommended him to me so i bought him for $15 hes basically grown 5X's bigger since then but hes still a great eel very active and fun to watch.....
since then i have only seen a white ribbon eel one other time at the 2 LFS's i go to out here where i live..... its a very cool animal and id reccomend it to anyone looking for a hardy nice eel.....
ill see if i can get a full pic later on when i feed him....

I got one too...I LOVE HIM! I had my LFS do a special order for me...and when people saw it, they wanted it...so he has ordered about 4 more since! they are awesome...I paid a little more for mine 35$ but he is well worth it! the species name is Uropterygius concolor if you wanted to try and order one...they are actually a snake moray but look like a ribbon eel...awesome fish well worth the $$

is=d say u probably need at least a 55gallon probably 75 to be safe.... they dont get thick just kinda long i think up to 30" or so..... mines about 24" right now....
yeah they are an actual moray not a ribbon but they are just called that cuz of there thin body and there lengthyness sp?...
but all in all a very nice eel
