Anyone successfully keep snowflake eel with clowns in a host anemone?

Thanks for any input if u have any experience with the snowflake or have seen this mix.

Thanks

I asked the same question a few weeks ago and I'll share some info I got. Make sure the Clowns you add are much larger then the eel. Also Snowflakes are pebble tooth eels, so they will mostly eat inverts so your clowns have a better % of surviving .

thanks.

That's pretty much what I know and what i expecting. I'm going to give it a go soon for a customer. I just plan on putting a big rbta in there so that should b good protection for the clowns...

None of my pebble toothed eels ever ate any of my fish, or seemed to have any interest in doing so.

Maroons are usually pretty capable of holding their own.

I was able to keep a snowflake eel with a small clownfish, but that doesn't mean that i didn't freak occassionally when I didn't see him right away, it is possible though.

I think maroons would be fine, just make sure the eel is well fed! I've never had a snowflake eat a fish.

I don't have a snowflake but a zebra with a pair of maroons in a RBTA and my zebra doesn't pester anyone.

i have an 18" snowflake, a tomato clown/ capret combo. no problems...
my eel only eats what i feed him, he is conditioned to feeding from my tweezers. he even lets my shrimp clean his mouth. (i have to get pic of that)
