Yeah, not real smart. I thought I would be allright due to the fact that I have a couple of small convicts in there that are just fine. Guess I learned the hard way.

Snowflake morays are marine. What you have is Gymnothorax tile, so I stand corrected. Hard to picture an 11" fish that consumes several rams, a 7" knife and a pleco. A little exaggeration on your part then?

I bought 4 frontosa (1 to 1.5") at my lfs today and brought them home to my mixed cichlid tank. I put them in about 8 hours ago and everything seemed OK, they were getting picked on alot, but this seems pretty normal for their first day. Well just now I looked at the tank, and my 6" flowerhorn has one blue little tail hanging out of his mouth I feel really bad because these guys were really cute and I really wanted to keep them. Not to mention the fact that I could buy 150 goldfish for the price of one.

oh well in the first place u should have not put those guys with a fh specially that size the fact the u saw them being picked a lot was a sign for you to take them of from there.

oh right on didnt know the name of him.. it was listed as freshwater morray eel. and i was told to keep it brackish. the knife was no less than 6 inches. i was lookin for a pic earlier but i still cant find one. well he didnt completely finish off the knife i later found some bits and pieces in some rocks.. he also could have munched parts of him and just some pieces were under rocks.not much tho. and he didnt eat my pleco, i should have been clearer.. he had him in his mouth trying to eat him, i reached in and made him spit him out. the pleco survived but has scars on his face. all in all he still just about cept for some tiny parts, ate him. so i sorta stand corrected as well thank you by the way for correcting me on the name. any idea why they have them listed as freshwater morrays?

I just googled "freshwater moray eel" and got a site that showed two moray species that are brackish but can survive in fresh. The first moray on the site looked like yours but with bolder colors, I'm thinking keeping them in ideal water does that? Anyhow, I'm still interested in the pic of your fat moray if you can find it. I'm imagining a stuffed sausage.. with fangs

You live with idiots. If I knew ppl were sticking their hands into my tank, I'd go out and get an electric eel. At $80 it's worth it. I've never heard of anything eating a pleco, but I did have an african dwarf frog that tried to swallow a cory headfirst....

 

[Plecos_Ftw]

what the hell! those tiny albino frog things?! now that you should have gotten a pic of! yea i had a locksmith come out so i should be alright. now i just have to watch my car yea all i can find is my pic of my clown knife i had like 6 months ago.. he didnt eat anything crazy so i dont really need to post him lol cant get over ur frog

It was a FAT african dwarf. Not an albino though- standard color. The frog was alive when I found it, cory was dead. Head was stuck inside the frog, tail was jutting out. Had to put down the frog..
