both the half banded eel and the peacock eel wrongly sent to from an ebay seller are now feeding with the light on it has taken a good part of 4 weeks for me to actually be able confirm that they are eating the half banded eel cant seem to want to stop eating I directly feed them using a turkey baster which the half banded eel immediately see's the baster as a source of food,The markings on the half banded eel are much darker and sharp it no longer looks washed out has also put on weight

So happy to hear that!

My half-banded eel ate from day one, which makes me feel fortunate. I read so much about people struggling with this at the start.

That is very good news! The half banded love their grub.

yes the one I have now wont stop eating. I am a sucker for punishment though went to get another one no one has them at the moment so I got a zebra spiny eel nice colours so the feeding challenge begins again here are 2 photos before I release it and it vanishes into the substrate

just target fed them with live tubefix all 3 feeding the new zebra eel did'nt eat as much as the other two but feed all the same with the light's on that's something the other two did'nt do.
