Love my snowflake! Still small, about the diameter of a Marker, but was so smol when I first got her. (Assuming, I don't know how to identify sex for them)

This is her feeding when I got her, so so small.

S/he has always been this pale white with a slight gold streak on the back half, you can see it a lot better in blues.
I've seen some that look incredible, a lot darker with a lot more freckles.

Awesome. I love my GDM. I've had him 8 years. I see the golden ones in pictures but mine is white like yours. He's been under the same rock for 99% of the 8 years.

I doubt anyone here has seen a white mouth moray, Gymnothorax meleagris in the hobby? I saw some wild ones and they were incredibly pretty.

What variety are you feeling your eels? I want to make sure my pretty baby gets good nutrition.

Good thing I asked, cuz that's not what I'm feeding and i need to go shopping. Currently feeding clam and krill. Only. Mine is very excited to take anything from my tongs so getting any variety should be easy.

Thank you!!
I have been reading threads from @lion king but I didn't see this specific question, I did try to pm him, but the button for messaging wasn't there?

Mine is on a staple of squid rings, with some silversides, shrimp and salmon peppered in

Yeah I can’t PM him either. He recommends a live diet if you can but if not a fresh dead diet of human grade food that includes a fatty fish like salmon.
