    Also forgot to add that you need to make sure that the eel can't escape. The morray I used to have got out on me and the cats played with him until, well you know :cry:
    The pvc idea works out great.

    Josh - I would be careful with triggers and puffers , have seen them destroy sharks by nipping them to death, suppose it's possible with a moray. Volume 1 of Reef Fishes has information on all the morays and has lots of suggestions for tankmates to avoid. I can copy it down and post it here if you want.

    Also dragons are total piscivores, they get large and nasty and will eventually need it's own tank unless it's signifcantly smaller than most of it's tankmates.

    If it were me I'd just go with the zebra, very gentle - snowflakes get mean. I don't know if he reads this board but Ron from the Austin reefkeepers group has a dragon and a zebra in his tank you may want to ask him for feedback.

    Josh, just wanted to tell you that my daughter sits here w/ me and copies the pic of your son. Let him know he's got a "thumbs up" pal.

    I know...off topic.

    I had a porky puffer with my eel no problem, it was my hippo tang that I had to worry about. He would always nip at the eel and puffer.

    I had though about keeping eel, puffer, and lion fishes together. But the though of having to clean their big caca turn me away. Believe it or not but Ron bought the baby dragon in Houston for $150. That's dirt cheap. They're normaly around $500 to $1,000 each depending on sizes.
    Look at all those live rocks on the beach at Florida's state park!
