Cuter little guy if it is.
Actually, after getting rid of my snowflake when I saw how big they get, the garden eel sounds like a good alternative.

I have a friend that has some.
I would like some but they required a really deep sand bed. _________ I was always taught to respect my elders, but it keeps getting harder to find one.
