Why don't you start a thread to find out.
You guys seemed knowledgeable about eels figured I'd ask. But it seems to be a bigger deal than I thought lol

It wasn't meant like that.
I'm fairly new to seriously keeping spiny eels, I've had a few in the past but they were always random tank occupants. I never really setup a tank for their needs. Second my threads don't typically get high amounts, but Id threads are pretty popular on this site.

Either way I'm loving this tank this is my 3 eel/knife combo and my second goby/eel/combo and all of them are really fun to watch.

You know, these guys were never really on my radar before I saw yours. I grow more and more intrigued...especially seeing them cohab with knives and eels....

Yea I love sleeper goby I've kept a lot of sleeper gobys over the years,and breed a few also
this is a bad video of one of my old breeding colonies of purple spot gudgeon 3m 2f both females would breed with all 3 males regularly and randomly. It was a really fun tank also.

For sure my bad bro I kind of felt like I was pushed off your thread bc I was derailing or something so I took it the wrong way. I took several pics of mine that I've had for a while I'll get a direct i.D for who ever knows. I'm also pretty new at spiny eels mine only eats bloodworms and hasn't grown much in like 7 months

There are several threads in this section on nutrition options which should provide some variety and spur growth in your eel. I looked around and didn't see your ID thread (?)
