Mixing eels

[Badiskm1]

So I have a baby snowflake eel no bigger than 8 inches who won't even go after 2 inch ocellaris clowns, and am thinking of putting a zebra eel, but is it a bad idea? Cause the zebra in my LFS is quite big? Aquarium size: 80 gallons

Zebra eel will outgrow your 80g tank since they get 5ft but they are very docile and won't hurt and fish you own no matter how small

Ok thanks, ya just wanted to know, because ive heard that some eels will eat snowflake eels.

You have nothing to worry about with the zebra

Agreed, seen them live peacefully together in some tanks. But I do agree if you get a zebra you'll have a good excuse for future upgrade.
