haha i dont know you tell me
 
yep, that's a baby zebra moray. my LFS owner has a 2 footer in her 180G FOWLR.
 
it was between this and a snowflake but I see snowflakes in there all the time.

This eel won't eat my snails or hermits or anything will it?

snails, no; hermits, probably. I think they can also get about 3-4 feet long, not positive on that.
 
yeah I went in the pet shop (which I worked at for a year) with $120 to blow and I decided on the eel. Usually I am against specimins that you can't accomodate the full size of but I couldn't pass it up and the owner said it would take a long time to grow large and assumably I can just bring it back when it gets too big.

Usually I am against that but I dunno at the time it didn't seem like a big deal to me.
 
im new to SW, but know alot about eels...
I do not think that is a zebra.. usually zebras have much darker stripes and perfectly straight lines going down their bodys... they also have a black stripe at the end of their "beeks".
