Before i begin i knew the risk i was taking when i combined a rtc and a fire eel... Well this tank i have is my parents house went over there yesturday and the fire eel was gone.... I was sad and checked all the gravel, literally brushed my fingers through every inch of the tank... the fire eel was 22 inches got him when he was 6 inches..... I was planning to take him out in the coming weeks but i guess this is what happens when u take to long... RIP little guy
 
Wow...So sorry for your loss.
 
that sucks man. sorry. welcome to the ugly side of big cats...

Sorry for your loss. Out of curiosity how big was the RTC?

he was 14 inches

I was going to give him away but i just needed one more week not because of the size because he has severe gill curl... Well lessons learned i guess but i really feel bad
 
Man I'm sorry to hear that sound's like that was a nice eel.
 
got a pic? sorry for the loss.

im hopefully picking up one of these in the next week or two for my cousin.

damn that sucks

btw how the hell did a 14 inch rtc eat a 22 inch fire eel

it was like a giant worm to him. the big cats can eat things that are huge,don't test them, they will surprise you
