I am new to this whole saltwater craze. I have a 55 gallon and am not sure what kinda fish to get. I really like the snowflake eel but not sure what can be put with it. Ideas and opinions anyone.?

I started with a 55 then I upgraded. PLEASE don't buy a snowflake unless you don't want to keep bottom dwellers or cleaner shrimp. Really consider your choice- I had a snowflake in my 55 and it was near impossible to get rid of him. I kept him with 2 clowns and 3 blue Chromis. He wouldn't let the hermit crabs or corals eat. I'm not saying they're bad tank pets, they have awesome personality. But really consider what fish or crustaceans you want to keep. If u have plans already for your livestock, tell me and I'll see if u have a good match. Just don't buy one if u haven't made long term plans. Enjoy the reefing hobby- its a blast. I'm just handing to u my experience with snowflakes and mine wasn't good because I wanted to keep cleaner shrimp. Have fun and TAKE IT SLOW- patience is rewarding in this hobby. :)

No salt on the bottom... but to answer your question fine or course sand I don't know with an eel. Or if it matters at all..

...
No it doesn't matter they love to cloud up the tank either way :(.
If I hadn't bought that eel I wouldn't have this dragon wrasse but well I could also blame it on the lfs owner then I could blame it on his ancestors and then.... Well u get the idea....I'm discontent
