blue ribbon eel

**mally 'o' mally** · 09-22-2011, 07:43 PM

Just a quickie guys.
Long story short I have the chance of a blue ribbon and snowflake eel tomorrow. they were originaly mine but during the divorce my ex sold my tank and contents for pennies, over £3000 worth. Well just by chance I came across an advert for them and turns out I know the person so is letting me have them for free. Problem is I now have 2 clownfish in a new reef tank which is big enough for the eels but think the eel's may eat the clownfish any thought's would be appreciated I dont need advice on care as I have kept eel's for years and have had fish with them but they were tangs and large angel's
thanks guys

sell em on quick or take them to lfs for credit maybe

Our local lfs dont do credit and besides I would rather keep them. if i have to I will move the clowns to another tank which I was goona do in around weeks anyway as they keep mating laying eggs but they just get eaten by the crabs

thats the best mate move them into another tank as its a shame for them to become lunch.

just a quick update I did move the clowns to another tank and I have the eels in and settled could not believe how much my snowflake had grown in a year he is stunning. and the ribbon eel is in fantastic health credit must be given to my friend who had them in doing such a fine job in giving them the care level they need. I also moved my blue legged hermits as i am sure snowflake would have loved crushing them up.
I fed both eel's today off a feeding stick and they happily ate 2 fish each.
Well done leon for taking care of them. I am so chuffed I could crush a grape
