hey all just curious if anyone has ever bred a snowflake eel or if they pair up or can they at least tolerate each other's company?? ive read that the males have longer teeth and that raising food for the youngens is nearly impossible.snowflakes are by far my favorite in the saltwater trade and id like someday to be able to breed or try too most people i know who have them have never thought about breeding or adding more than one.any thoughts???

thanks russell, ive never heard of that site before cool find:) im surprised about how little is know about their sexing and breeding. im thinking in my new set up about doing a snowflake tank possibly with 4 eels. the tank will be around 200g and will have four sides to cover from plus ill add lots of caves and epoxy rocks:):)

i doubt ill ever successfully get them to mate but id like to try and learn in the years and if i dont then it was a learning process and if i do then its a whole new direction again with all new problems:)
