Snowflake

Well I picked up my snowflake this weekend, chose him over the zebra and happy I did. He was a return for a customer that had bought him for this lfs 2 years ago, and had to move out of state. He came with his own favorite pvc pipe, very active and eats like a champ, thanks to everyone for the advice. Good Luck

My 2 snows only seem to like krill and silversides. At one time they would eat squid but now neither will (interestingly I had read that squid was a delicacy to a eel, but maybe not snows). I never wanted a eel until my son who has one in Florida kept pestering me so I bought one then another and have enjoyed them ever since. I'd say they are growing in my mind to favorite status along with my Puffs.

Pufflover, Do you keep yor snowflakes in the same tank? I thought about getting another one, but I'm afraid they would kill each other. Our Mr. snowy will not eat silversides, one wiff and hes gone...He loves squid. Occ we will toss in a gold fish so he can hunt.(only 1-2 times a month) He'll take crab once and a while too, but he'd rather have his squid. Later Lisa

Lisa; No I don't only because they were bought a few weeks apart and one is about 15" long and the other a baby. my lfs does keep 2 or 3 in a tank with no apparent problems but they go in at same time and are about same size.
