i have a juvenile snowflake eel and a baby banded snowflake eel in my 100 gallon tank. So far i have only added a clarkii clown and he has been doing fine, actually he even nips at both the eels, don't know if thats a good thing (as in he's aggresive enough to hang) or a bad thing (as in he's too aggresive) Anyways what other fish would be good to add?

it will be a bad thing if your clarkii keeps nipping because it will more than likely stress the eel and it will go on a hunger strike.
Other tank mates depends on what you like, you can add a more docile type of trigger, or a volitan lionfish if you like those but not best to mix with a trigger, a type of medium sized angelfish. a handful of damsels/chromis for color. what kinda fish would you like to have in your tank?

Is there anything that doesn't go with an Eel? I'm pretty sure you can house SFE's with pretty much any fish. Maybe a slow moving small bottom dwelling fish would be lunch, but most anything will be fine. Personally speaking, my SFE doesnt even mess with inverts.

I believe listening is powerful Medicine.
Studies have shown it takes a physician about 18 seconds to interrupt a patient after he begins talking.
It was Sunday. I had one last patient to see. I approached her room in a hurry and stood at the doorway. She was an older woman, sitting at the edge of the bed, struggling to put socks on her swollen feet.World of warcraft Power Leveling I crossed the threshold, spoke quickly to the nurse, scanned her chart noting she was in stable condition. I was almost in the clear.
I leaned on the bedrail looking down at her. She asked if I could help put on her socks. Instead, I launched into a monologue that went something like this: "How are you feeling? Your sugars and blood pressure were high but they're better today. The nurse mentioned you're anxious to see your son who's visiting you today. It's nice to have family visit from far away. I bet you really look forward to seeing him."
She stopped me with a stern, authoritative voice. wow power leveling,"Sit down, doctor. This is my story, not your story."
I was surprised and embarrassed. I sat down. I helped her with the socks. She began to tell me that her only son lived around the corner from her, but she had not seen him in five years. She believed that the stress of this contributed greatly to her health problems. After hearing her story and putting on her socks, I asked if there was anything else I could do for her. She shook her head no and smiled. All she wanted me to do was to listen.
Each story is different. Some are detailed; others are vague. Some have a beginning, middle and end. Others wander without a clear conclusion. Some are true; others not. Yet all those things do not really matter. What matters to the storyteller is that the story is heard — without interruption, assumption or judgment.
Listening to someone's story costs less than expensive diagnostic testing but is key to healing and diagnosis.
I often thought of what that woman taught me, and I reminded myself of the importance of stopping, sitting down and truly listening. And, not long after, in an unexpected twist, I became the patient, with a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis at age 31. Now, 20 years later, I sit all the time — in a wheelchair.
For as long as I could, I continued to see patients from my chair, but I had to resign when my hands were affected. I still teach med students and other health care professionals, but now from the perspective of physician and patient.
I tell them I believe in the power of listening. I tell them I know firsthand that immeasurable healing takes place within me when someone stops, sits down and listens to my story.
The Internet, which was unfamiliar to human beings is totally accepted by most of people. Especially these days, it has been developing faster and faster, people do not have much time to do everything by themselves. So making full use of the Internet is a good way to color one’s life.
For instance, students could learn more and more from all over the world so that they can broaden their horizon and enrich their knowledge. Absolutely, the bridge that connects the whole world is the Internet.
Secondly, scientists and mathematicians, too, can share research results in order to promote the wheel of human society much more quickly.world of warcraft power leveling,
I suppose the key factor of importance of Internet is to find a good job . In the society which is full of competition, more information means more opportunities. A job hunter can get on the Internet to browse for a favorable job.
Well, from what has been mentioned above, I believe with the high speed and efficiency, the Internet will become more and more popular among people in the near future. wow power leveling

Idk if I'm the moron here or something but I didn't catch what type of fish you were suggesting.

As for what will go with those eels in a 100g, just about anything that can fit in a 100g. Those are easy going eels.
Angels, Wrasses, small Tangs, etc, etc....
Enjoy.

So I finally got around and picked out some fish. I made sure they were hardy and I leaned toward alge grazers this time. My first choice was a fox face rabbit fish, then a royal beauty dwarf angel, and I took a chance and threw in a couple of damsels (yellow belly, and some cute stubby red guy) I am pleased to say all is well. The fox face tripped me out when he decided to completly change from his beautiful yellow to an all around spotted look, but luckily I did my research and was expecting it. As far as the eels - my spotted moray buddied up with my clarkii after all was said and done but unfortunatly the same clarkii has it out for my snowflake. To the point of ferociously attacking his mouth, almost trying to lock jaws with him. I'll probably start a new post to get some suggestions on that. But I'm overall content with my fish addition. They're so beautiful, bring so much color to my tank, and aren't constantly hiding so I can enjoy them.
