Description: Snowflake Eels are great fish for beginners.  They do get large over time. A tank size of 200 gallons is needed for a fully grown Snowflake Eel. They will eat small fish. The aquarium should be completely covered as they are jumpers. Eels do not need to be fed everyday as it takes them longer to digest. Feed large meaty feeds 3-4 times a week.
