Tessalata Eel

I was just wondering how fast a Tessalata Eel grows? I'm thinking of adding a small one to my 160g.
thanks

yes you can !You can keep one in a 75 if you want too?

They grow extremely slowly that would be perfect

They really don't grow as fast as you would think, but they do get pretty big and it doesn't take THAT long. Mine's grown about 6 inches in 1 1/2 years. Contrast that with the green I have that's grown about 6 inches in 6 months. A 160 would be a great sized tank for one. But it's not something you keep with other animals, like fish, etc. However, I do maintain you can keep a tesselata with other morays, as long as they are of similar size. THey could fight though.
Lion...a 75 for a tesselata?!!!! No!
