Help! - Moray Eel - Need to rehome to Brackish tank?!

This is him anyway... So provided Brighton Sea-Life accept him after I had to send some pics earlier, you can look out for him in the exhibits!

Brackish tanks are ludicrously difficult to maintain. It's great you managed to possibly re-home him.

They thrive in full marine too, especially when large!

Fingers crossed, the chap there seemed keen.

Brilliant creature, I've just been reading about their jaws - amazing stuff.

100% agree. I love all marine life but being a student there's no way I could afford the outset for a proper marine setup. Oh well, maybe once I graduate...

He has been great to watch, and fun to learn about.

I think i prefer my Polypterus though, he is a real character.

Eels really freak me out! I saw a giant moray when I was in the Maldives and when it looked at me I wet myself. Must have been 6ft.
