Snowflake Eel

The Snowflake Eel is a captivating marine species renowned for its bold white and black reticulated pattern. This nocturnal predator adapts well to established saltwater aquariums with abundant rockwork, caves, and crevices for shelter. Snowflake Eels demand stable marine conditions with temperatures of 72-78°F, consistent salinity levels, and moderate to strong water circulation. As opportunistic carnivores, they feed on small fish, crustaceans, and mollusks, requiring careful consideration when selecting tank mates. Hardy and long-lived when properly maintained, these eels can thrive for 7-10 years, making them excellent choices for intermediate to advanced marine aquarists seeking a distinctive and behaviorally engaging specimen.
