Still swimming like mad. I added some med CL (6-7") and my water has been cloudy ever since. I need to get rid of them lol

Morays are eating massivore, nls, cichlid gold and algae wafers. Love these dudes

Hey West,
How many loaches you got with your morays? They don't beat the eels to food, or do you just have to overfeed a little? Thx!!!

4 large and one small. As I've said before, only the strong survive in my tank lol. I feed a certain amount of food but I do see them swim to food pretty quick. Either they are starving or they have learned to be first

Update:
Not living in my house due to water damage so im not ontop of tank maintenance. Alge is horrid lol.
Quick vid as I went home n thought about a quick vid 10min after feeding.

Saw the loach in the tank and was wondering if the eels look at it like food. Mouths too small? Mild mannered?

Lol. I hate the way my phone enhances the spraybar so I just uploaded the first song youtube gave me lolol. Im surprised how thick they have gotten!

TY, they seem to be thriving in this tiny tank (50gl).

I don't think so. I had a few Ottos till I put in some grow out hoplias. They do have small mouths and from what I see, they smell everything and usually chase off the loach the second they meet. I needed some cheap snail control

Hey West1. Your videos inspired me to pick up a couple of 12" a while ago, they are getting bigger and finally eating floating krill! That's while they fight through 21 loaches sized 4" - 10". Please keep up the updates!

They look great and getting thick. Finally picked me up a couple 10"ers. Hopefully they grow and fill out as fast as yours.

Got 4 now, 10"-14." Eating FD krill, hikari floating food sticks, hikari floating cichlid bio/gold +, MP, tilapia. It's awesome watching these eels go to the surface to swallow food with their small mouths!!!
