Hi,
I have a thirty gallon brackish water tank with one 4 inch freshwater moray eel in it. I've let it go for about a month, but i'm kind of sick of seeing an empty tank (the eel hides as it should). I've been told scats and gobies, but i want fish that can grow with the moray, that he won't eat... if its at all possible. I've done alot of research but no one seems to know alot about freshwater morays that i can find... most pet stores I've talked to never knew there was such a thing! I "rescued" it from a pet store that had it in a filthy tank with Frontosa and Texas Cichlids.

Thanks
Jess

The "FW" moray will prefer high-end BW. You'll need to use marine salt & a hydrometer, raising the specific gravity .002/week. Scats grow way too large for a 30g tank. So will the eel, I believe.

Oh i know that! It was the only empty tank i had, the guy i got it from was gonna let it out in a local pond cause he had it in with his guppies and it was eating them! So its in there until i can move my SACs to a bigger tank, then he can go in the 150 for a while. I just want fish he isn't going to eat, or eat him.
Thanks for the other info though... very helpful.
