Anyone have any success feeding their Peacock Eels krill?

They can probably be trained to take it. Don't feed it for a few days first. Take a piece of monofilament fishing line and pierce the krill with it so you can dangle it in front of the eel. Move it a little and see if he takes interest. The idea is to make him think it's alive.

That sounds like a good idea... I will try it out and let you know. Thanks!
 
what i do is use a thin bamboo stick and split the end. i then put whatever food i want (worms, hikari carnivor pellets etc) and stick it in the tank.

my elephant nose, ghost knife and peacock eel and all other fish reacts to it straight away and lines up to take a peck at it :)
