My snowflake eel was 18-20 inches and he ate a file fish, a railway goby, a peppermint shirmp, a domino damsel (none of these were very small) and several snails. I still loved him but gave him away.    I'm sorry for your loss. ]]> Mon, 10 Jun 2013 20:06:17 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=64787&PID=526346&title=missing-jawfish#526346 <![CDATA[Missing Jawfish : OMG That&#039;s terrible.Like...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=64787&PID=526272&title=missing-jawfish#526272 Author: Mark Peterson

OMG That's terrible.
Like DMower I was glad to hear it was okay and hoping the Snowflake played nice.

I feel like sharing an amazing story about a Tesselata Moray and a Volitan Lionfish.This link should take you to the post. The rest of the thread is interesting and very relevant to this Jawfish tragedy.

Well. I guess I was wrong.    Sorry to hear.

....And he's dead. Cry

I was watching the tank last night and my eel crept up on his burrow and the next thing I knew my eel was thrashing around and wrapping his body around something that was wiggling and trying to escape. No sign of the jawfish since. So I guess the eel is capable of eating a jawfish which means he's being evicted from the tank.

Great news Ann! When we feed we watch two places to make sure the fish are eating. The cardinals and the jaw fish. While the jaw fish will grab some pellets if it drops in front of him, the cardinals still only eat the mysis or other frozen foods so we make sure they get some. Depending on our blue spots the burrow of the day, we often have to squirt some food right next to him to make sure he gets it. ]]> Mon, 10 Jun 2013 10:18:40 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=64787&PID=526227&title=missing-jawfish#526227 <![CDATA[Missing Jawfish : I&#039;m glad I was wrong. ...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=64787&PID=526158&title=missing-jawfish#526158 Author: Mark Peterson
