I have kept many different types of fish over the years and have always seen tessalata's around but never bothered with them.
Can anyone give me some advice/info on these guys. I know they get BIG, but what is their temperment like compared to other eels, and how would they get along with the likes of tangs or lage angels or even small sharks?

Gets upt o 6 feet and needs at least a 240 gallon tank 300 is better. Temperment is similar to a green moray and will eat fish. Mine is about as agressive as my jeweled moray maybe a little more. And he is 13 inches.

If the tangs and angels are over 7 inches and you get the tessie as a juvie you should be okay ina large set up. With sharks it depends if they are the same size or if the shark is bigger than they should be ok.
