What are Garden Eels?
They’re Congrids… the family of true eels most commonly called Conger Eels… why do you ask…? They are eels… that get to a couple of feet in length… live in soft, deep sand… You’ve seen them in underwater nature shows on the tube… hanging around in the open current in a group… like so many reeds in the wind… Not suitable for aquarium use. Boston Beans (Ostraciids, Boxfishes) don’t grow up to be gigantic… they’re puffers that don’t blow up…
