ive had him/her about 5-6 months and there has been zero growth it seems maybe 1/2 inch? still about 8 inch, in a 100g and eats bloodworm every other day? i had him in the 300g eating earth worms daily for over a month of that too! do they really grow that slow, maybe its stunted?
 
Lots of spiny eels come into the Hobby infested with internal parasites. Deworming might be worth a try.
 
Cool, cheers chub!-)
