Well recently ive lost my giant fire eel ive had him since i started the hobby about 10 years back and im rather attatched to eels for this reason. Browsing my local i was offered a "marbled snowflake eel" which i believe to be Echidna rhodochilius and ive heared that these fish are at best brackish and nigh on impossible to feed.
Now i'm wanting to know if this is true, as i only have fresh water set ups and i really am on the prowl for a big eel to make use of the terracotta pots set up in my old eels tank!
Im proposing a heavilly filtered 4x2x2 tank with a shoal of 6 Chalceus erythrurus "large scaled chalceus" and some spiny plec of what species i havent decided on, any advice would be hugely welcome
