Freshwater eel options

[Frank Castle]

Frank Castle great idea. just to find one now would be the fun part

.....and be willing to spend $100+ on one fish

Really? What did he go after? The freshwater moray is what frank suggested and it looked like a great idea. I'm very curious what he was housed with that he tried to kill. The smallest stuff in my tank currently are about 7-8" balas

he didnt go after anything that swam mid to top water as far as I know. I never saw anything that swam mid-top water have bites or anything but he went after bottom swimmers such as catfish and plecos

yeah, I did read somewhere that they had venomous teeth. Im definitely not trying to turn you off of them they are really awesome, I just wouldn't want you to loose a fire eel they are really cool to and can both be hard to find.

As a person whos owned a fire eel in the past, and polyuranadons now, i can tell you Fire Eels will be a lot more personable than poly's...

Not to mention fire eels grow pretty large, reasonably quickly... especially once you get them eating basically anything...

I got my guy when he was 10" and basically started to try hand feeding him from the beginning... i think took approx 6months till he was comfortable eating out of my hand, then from there grew like a weed and hit over 24" before he decided to take a dive out of my tank....

Yea my fire eel is awesome. He seems to love krill the most. I built him a lace rock mansion which he hangs out of most of the time.

I think those fresh water morays are brackish and you're going to need to add salt.
