Yellow-head Moray Eel

[arlene1995]

Hi!
I'm looking to get a Yellow-headed Moray Eel (Gymnothorax rueppellii) and I'm looking for some tips or any good advice on how to care for them. I really, really want to successfully house this eel. All advice is apreciated! Thank you very much!

Is that the same as a Fimbriated Eel?? How big is your tank Arlene? I am very interested in this eel also.

Thanks Rslinger!
kirkaz- It is similar, although the Yellow-headed eel doesn't get over 3 ft. I'm starting it in a 20, then going to move it to a 55. My avatar is one. Hope this helps!
Thanks!

I have a baby fimberated/yellow head moray. I is a great addition, but is very aggressive. He has never bitten me but once he gets bigger I'm sure it will be a different story. He is very active and loves to swim and be curious.

What are his tankmates? How big is the tank? Got any pictures?
