i love my snowflake. he is awesome. they are also fairly active during the day. they need a secure top as you probably know, but i have found that if they have something such as pvc or something else like that they are much less prone to escape. mine eats krill, silversides, occasionally clams, and squid. he eats squid the most by far which is his favorite food. i occasionally feed my trigger live red minnows(once or twice a month) and he will eat some minnows that the trigger doesnt eat or pieces that fall to the sand. never hand feed your eel, this he will associate your hand with food and eels eyes arent to great and when you clean your tank he might think you have food and bite your hand. the only problem i have ever had with my eel is sometimes he gets a little agressive during feeding time. on several occasions when my trigger was eating some krill on the top the eel swam up and trying to get the krill but my trigger. he let go pretty quick though. good luck with your eel, they are great! bo
