  I have a question concerning the feeding of my Starflake Moray.
 Is it all right to keep him on a diet of exclusivly goldfish?
 I've had him over a year and he has grown from 3" to 12". I give
 him one 1" - 2" goldfish a day. About two times a month he will 
 not eat for about 3-4 days. When he does eat, he eagerly accepts
 the goldfish from my hand. 
  My reason for concern is that he seems to have stopped growing.
 I have not noticed any growth for the last 2 months. Also he hides
 a lot more than he used to. Usually he would prowl the tank starting 
 about 8:00pm (1 hour before 'lights out'). Now I only see him at 
 feeding time.
  Water conditions have been stable. The tank is a 30 gallon. He is
 the only 'fish' in the tank. 
  Any comments or suggestions would be greatfully accepted.
