from the feeding videos of tulip and swamp eels on youtube it looks like nightcrawlers, shrimp and fish such as tilapia should work however you may need to target feed them i the beginning

I've tried prawn, beef heart, earthworms, white fish, herring... they're not eating anything. It's insane.

I've tried that too. Lights off. At night. No luck. I THINK he ate one of my Cory cats though. But I've had him for weeks and seen him eat nothing....

I kept them for a year or so. I used to feed small crawfish, dragonfly larvae, sinking pellets, I put seminole killis in there as well. I believe the small ones disappeared from time to time in the night. I very seldom saw the fish eat. I only saw food missing over time.
