Asian Swamp Eels, Anyone?

[crypticmonk]

ok I know these are invasive, but anyone in the north keep them? They look pretty weird...

 

[HungDang]

they seem illegal to keep in many states due to the fact that there is American eel.

 

[crypticmonk]

Yeah, I know they're not illegal here in Montana (unless there's some kind of federal law against them)...

^ Are they actually freshwater or brackish water fish?

Fully fresh, they come from swamps and rice paddies in Asia.

Cool, going to keep an eye for them, they look interesting... Thanks

Check Asian supermarkets, they sell them here as "yellow eel" or "rice paddy eel".
