Spotted garden eel eel meal time

Rice Time

You can watch the Spotted garden eel eels eating.

During the Spotted garden eel feeding time, the animal care staff gives the Spotted garden eel two different sizes of plankton, allowing visitors to closely observe their individual food preferences and eating habits.
The sight of Spotted garden eel stretching their bodies out of the sand all at once to eat the plankton that drifts by is a sight you can only see at feeding time!
Sometimes, you might even see a Spotted garden eel that gets so excited it pops its whole body out of the sand!
