banded snake eel

No pic but, we've had two of them. And, they both died relatively quickly. We had taken them from a friend who was getting out of the hobby and he had just bought them. They just don't take well to captivity. Ours were probably 2 ft. long.

Their main cause of death in an aquarium is lack of food because they just have a hard time taking to prepared food. And, we tried everything alive and frozen. They other thing I've read is that they are notorious escap artists. And, due to their relatively small diameter, they can fit just about anywhere.

Good luck! Do the right thing and leave 'em in the ocean.

Oh, and just g_o_o_g_l_e for the banded snake eal.
