Hi Justin. Yes, he will eat one complete prawn when I feed him. I think he is obese,ha ha!!, I think it is the most interesting pet to have In your salt water aquarium. My eel is a snowflake eel and they don't get that big, about 300 mm.

Hi FishyUser. a saltwater tank is very interesting. Just remember that patience is the answer when setting up a new salt water tank. You must cycle it for not less than 3 months before you can put fish in it.

No not 3 months, 1-2 if fine. But yes patience is the key, just do alot of reaserch
 
What size is your tank? I was thinking about one for my 60g cube. What do you feed him?

Hi Fishman. My tank is a 300 litre aqua one tank. You don't need a tank that big for snowflake eels. I feed him prawn and he will eat one complete prawn in one feeding session. This is really fun.

Yeah ive always wanted one and now since i got a new 60g i think i may get one if i can convince myself that its better than crabs and shrimp. Also i do believe hippos need atleast a 6ft 180g tank minimum.

Yes,my hippos are very happy in my 300 litre tank. I will upload some pictures of it on a later stage. What fish do you have ?

That is great. I want to get myself a flame angel. I am just worrying that it may not be compatible with my yellow tang. I also have 2 valentini puffers.

My valentini is my favorite fish! Yeah flames are great, i used to have a lemon peel which was great but he wouldnt eat so i had to give him away.
