currently have 2 morays (seem to be getting along a lot better now, thanks for all the advice) and 2 fan dancer gobies in a 29gallon aquarium....planning on getting a 55 soon and was wondering if it would be possible to add a stonefish in with them, or would the stonefish kill or eat the the morays? might help if i add that the only stonefish i have been able to find are already about 4-5 inches long and that my morays are around 12-14 inches long.

Once again thanks for any and all help!

The stonefish will normally not try to eat anything that doesn't fit in its mouth.

Right now I have a large stonefish 8-10" long with a mouth the size of my fist.

I also have a FW snowflake eel. They are commonly kept together in brackish tanks.

The eel grows too long to be a food item. Stonefish are lazy :) If it doesn't immediately fit in their mouths, they won't go for it.
