{"product_id":"skeletor-eel","title":"Skeletor Eel","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Skeletor Eel, *Thalassenchelys coheni*, is a truly unique and captivating addition for the advanced marine aquarist seeking something extraordinary. Named for its striking, almost translucent appearance that reveals its skeletal structure, this deep-sea eel possesses an otherworldly beauty. Its elongated, serpentine body is typically a pale, ghostly white or light grey, allowing the intricate bone structure to be visible beneath the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA minimum aquarium size of 180 gallons is recommended to provide ample space for this active predator. The tank should be securely covered, as eels are notorious escape artists. A deep sand bed and plenty of live rock arranged to create numerous caves and hiding places are essential to mimic their natural habitat and provide security. While not a reef-safe species, the Skeletor Eel is generally not aggressive towards fish too large to be considered prey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Skeletor Eel is a carnivorous species and requires a diet of meaty foods. Offer a variety of high-quality frozen or fresh seafood such as silversides, squid, shrimp, and pieces of fish. They may need to be target-fed initially. In a home aquarium, they can reach lengths of up to 3 feet, so ensure your tank is appropriately sized for their potential growth. Little is known about their reproductive habits in captivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuick Facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScientific Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thalassenchelys coheni\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Advanced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aggressive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Carnivore\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReef Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not Reef Safe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indo-Pacific\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Adult Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Tank Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75 gallons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Discover Aquatics","offers":[{"title":"Small","offer_id":53075755041057,"sku":"TT-6197-S","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Medium","offer_id":53075755073825,"sku":"TT-6197-M","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Large","offer_id":53075755106593,"sku":"TT-6197-L","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/discoveraquaticsshop.com\/products\/skeletor-eel","provider":"Discover Aquatics Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
