Default Golden Dwarf Moray

I know a couple of people here have Golden Dwarfs, can you guys tell me the circumference of your adult eels? I'm thinking of getting one or two, and would like to set up some caves using pcv pipe. I was thinking 1" but not sure.

Mine is going on a couple years now, he's maybe 12-15mm in diameter.

I made a beautiful rock scape around a hidden labyrinth of 1" pvc but he shuns it. Prefers the natural caves in the gaps between rocks. Luckily my rocks are literally cemented together so collapse is theoretically a low risk.

Thanks Tony, I think I may go with the 1" pipe and risk the eel not using it. I can always use the pipe as frame work for the rock. Good idea with the cement. I usually drill a hole in the rock and use plastic dowel to hold it together, but maybe I'll fill the holes with cement, in effect cementing the dowel to the rock.
