i want a fire eel...

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
very nice! reminds me of mine, gave up on trying to feed them though, i have to let go of it. hope u have the patience as they are really beautiful eels!
 
First lovely fire eel, secondly, move the rtc x tsn out the tank he will be able to eat him , i watched a 3inch rtc eat a 8 inch worm it did take him half the day, and eels are like worms.

Ive keep on to about 12 inch then moved him on, great fish to keep mine hand feed the first day at 6 inch , just feed blood worm and prawns but cut the prawns in half, easyer for them to eat.

Goodluck with him.

I had one that would not eat. It slowly deteriorated and eventually died. On the other hand, I have 2 tire tracks that eat like pigs and have done well. Good luck with your eel. I think it's a matter of some eels that just seem to have adjustment issues. I'm sure your eel will do fine.
