Gymnoumuraena Zebra-Zebra

A gentle eel that gets to about 3'-4'. People have kept them in reef tank but they will eat inverts and clams so they're very risky in a reef tank. They also put out a tremendous amount of waste, which puts a lot of load on your system. They are pretty blind and move around the tank pretty clumsy. They need rocks or pvc pipes to hide in. They should be feed with a feeding stick. Can be house with aggressive and non aggressive fish without any problems, shouldn't be house with aggressive triggers. Some can take a while to get to eat, so may want to try mackerel fish or soak some food in mackerel oil to get them started.
