They are very long and slender eels attaining 40 inches in length. Their body is mostly white in color with black spots covering the head and face, with long nostrils protruding from the nose. Their body color may darken with age taking on a light brown coloration.
Although easier to maintain and get to feed than the Black or Blue Ribbon Eel, these fish can be difficult to feed initially. They can easily escape out of smallest space from the aquarium. A 50-gallon or larger aquarium with plenty of live rock for cover, and a tightly fit canopy is ideal.
The Ghost Eel is safe to house with most fish that cannot fit into the eels mouth. Additionally, more pugnacious fish will make it very challenging to feed the eel properly.
