Ribbon Eels

[vinnie t.]

I want a Ribbon Eel, do they cause any problembs with no other fish in the tank? My book said they can go in small tanks. But they are difficult to feed.

Vinnie; Do yourself a favor and forget the ribbon they just normally don't make it. A Snowflake is a different story they are hard as nails and just a lot of fun to have.

Good point I didn't catch the tank size. All my books say 30 is smallest for a eel but even I think it is still to small except for a baby eel. Now altho the snowflake can and will get some girth as opposed to the ribbon eel they both get long and need some room and of course rocks to live under (or pvc works well to).
