I saw some really tiny ones at King Ed Pets on thursday, you could try phoning there, I don't remember the price but I don't think it was too much.

Do you have a canopy or top cover, if not, have fun as they are great at escaping.

I too would love a Snowflake, but I don't have a cover, so I won't take the chance.

Snowflakes are not that expensive, here in Calgary usually about $40 for one at the LFS, check with a LFS in your area. They could always order one in their next fish shipment, then hopefully you get.

alright so, i bought some frozen shrimp and tried feeding it to them, they both took a piece but didnt eat it
should i just keep them on live food?

I feed mine shrimp from shrimp rings from the grocery store. Cheap & large.

they are little speckled morays about 5 -6" long and so far they have eaten feeder goldfish and had no interest in shrimp frozen

To get my baby zebra moray to eat I had to wiggle a piece of raw tiger prawn by his nose using tongs. Some morays will eat live clams but I'm not sure about yours. I wouldn't rely on feeder goldfish, too little nutritional value.
