Dragon Moray Eel Aquarium Care Guide

Keeping Dragon Moray Eel in an aquarium requires the right conditions.

Aquarium Information

• Care level: expert
• Temperament: aggressive
• Diet: carnivore
• Minimum tank size: 180 gallons
• Compatibility: Not suitable for community tanks. Best kept singly or with very large, robust, and aggressive tank mates that cannot be swallowed. Will consume smaller fish and invertebrates.
• Special requirements: Requires a very secure lid as they are expert escape artists. Ample rockwork with numerous caves and crevices for hiding. Excellent filtration is essential due to their messy eating habits. Live or frozen meaty foods should be offered with tongs to prevent bites. Avoid keeping with other morays unless the tank is exceptionally large and they are introduced simultaneously as juveniles.
