Chainlink Moray Eel Care Video

Very cool video :) Thank you for sharing :D @Brew12 would enjoy checking this out when he has a chance :D
 
Great video. I see these eels all the time at the beach and want to catch one for my tank but I’m hesitant because I’m scared of it eating my fish.
 
We have a jewel eel for three years and love Ernie! Have it in a 180 FO with porcupine puffer, majestic angel, Koran and emperor angel. Also have foxface, harlequin tusk, Niger, Picasso, red tail triggers, Sohal and scopas tangs. He doesn’t bother any of them but all very large fish. It eats krill, silversides, clams and rods reef predator blend. Is kind picky eater so we have to feed a variety of food and switch it up often. May go a week without eating at all them vigorously searches for food. We hand feed this one and he is very gentle takes food easy although would not recommend for beginners! Your video is very helpful. Wish we had seen it when we started.
Thank you for sharing!

This is an old friend that always showed up at one of my favorite dive sites. You can see it's had a few run ins with nearby competitors.
Chain Morays are really quite spectacular to see in the wild.

Nice video. I'd love a chain link or skeletor eel that size in my tank but with me keeping a lot of wrasse, I just can't risk it deciding to make a snack out of a very expensive fish. If I get another one, it'll probably be another golden dwarf.
 

I had one of these eels on my tank previously and I give it away which I regret it, she was very tame and had a great personality she love to eat krill which I hand feed with a twezers and when feeding time for nems and other species she was out wating for me to feed her, I thought that she was attacking my fishes due to the fact that I saw her couple times very close to one of my fishes, she always was close to that particular fish which made me nervous, now I realized that she was posed no harm to that fish.... I had it since she was couple inches small...
 
#Damselslivesmatter - Just kidding. I love damsels though. Seriously :)
ARGH! Spoiler alert - Aliens - well, maybe just a little bit. Again, teasing.

Thanks for putting it together. I've seen a few diving although I typically see the larger Green Moray's which are pushing 7+ feet in length. Around Monterey we see the wolf eel which is, well, rather ugly :( In any case - thanks for sharing. I've wanted a eel in the tank but outside a smaller golden I don't want to take the chance. May go for engineer goby or two instead although that has its own set of challenges.
