He He He, because of me!

That is seriously the coolest eel I've ever seen. If you ever decide to part with it, let me know!

Well there is someone in my reef club that is taking the picture all over the place tring to find one so you may have to fight with her over it

Looks nice.
I used a 50# bag of playbox sand. Don't know if its a
good idea or not. seems ok.

I absolutely love these eels! My roommate got me one for my b-day about a year and a half ago (aug 2004) at a mere 7". Today, he's almost 2 feet. He's pretty much my favorite in my tank, aside the GSM clown who was my first SW fish 5 years ago.

in your tank filters ect, my eel got out and I found it 24 hrs later in an old shoe in my garage, i rinsed her off and put her in and she is fine believe it our not, some can stay outside for 4-6 days i heard but only have tolerance to do this a few times as i have heard of them doing it muitiple times before dying, i keep mine well fed with plenty of great hiding spots and of course everything is tightly sealed with duck tape inside and outside my tank, good luck hoe this helps you some, :smokin:
