I bought this eel for my 30-gallon tank and it has been thriving. It’s not overly active but stays calm most of the time. I’ve kept an eye on it around corals, and so far no damage. Good for beginners who want a unique species.
Jacob Welch –
The eel arrived healthy and fits well in my tank. I’m cautious about placing it near soft corals, but it hasn’t shown any aggressive behavior. It’s a bit shy at first but settles in after a week.

It’s a nice addition to the tank, but I noticed it sometimes nudges the coral. I’ve moved it slightly away from the front wall. Still, it’s manageable for a beginner with proper setup.
