The Snowflake Eel (Echidna nebulosa), also known as the Snowflake Moray Eel, is a fascinating and popular eel species found in the Indo-Pacific region. Here are the general requirements for keeping a Snowflake Eel in an aquarium:

  1. Tank size: Snowflake Eels require a spacious tank due to their size and need for swimming space. A tank with a minimum capacity of 50 gallons (189 liters) is recommended. Providing a larger tank will offer more room for the eel to explore and move around.

  2. Tank setup: Provide a well-secured tank with a tight-fitting lid, as Snowflake Eels are known to be excellent escape artists. The tank should have plenty of hiding spots such as caves, PVC pipes, and rock formations to mimic their natural habitat. They appreciate a sand substrate to burrow in.

  3. Water parameters: Maintain stable water conditions within the following parameters: temperature between 72-78°F (22-26°C), pH around 8.1-8.4, and specific gravity between 1.020 and 1.025. Snowflake Eels are generally more tolerant of water quality fluctuations than other sensitive marine species, but regular monitoring and maintenance of water quality is still important.

  4. Lighting: Snowflake Eels are nocturnal and prefer dim lighting conditions. Use subdued lighting or provide plenty of hiding spots to create darker areas within the tank.

  5. Feeding: Snowflake Eels are carnivorous and primarily feed on a diet of meaty foods. Offer them a varied diet of frozen or thawed seafood such as shrimp, squid, and fish. Some individuals may also accept live feeder fish. It's important to ensure that the food is appropriately sized and nutritional to meet their dietary needs. Feed them 2-3 times a week, adjusting the quantity based on their appetite and growth.

  6. Tankmates: Snowflake Eels are generally aggressive and should be kept as the only eel species in the tank. They may also eat smaller fish and invertebrates, so choose tankmates carefully. Consider keeping them in a species-only or predator-specific aquarium.

  7. Handling: Snowflake Eels have sharp teeth and a powerful bite. Avoid handling them with bare hands to prevent injury. Use a net or other appropriate tools when necessary.

  8. Acclimation: When introducing a Snowflake Eel to a new tank, proper acclimation is important. Gradually acclimate them to the water parameters of your tank over a period of time to minimize stress and ensure a smooth transition.

Remember to provide a stable and well-maintained environment for Snowflake Eels. Regular monitoring of water parameters, a proper diet, and appropriate tank setup are crucial for their health and well-being. Research the specific requirements of the species and consult with experienced aquarists or marine biologists for proper care guidelines.
