Hey guys! Just went to my LFS today and picked up a 6" or so TT eel. It's a great little guy. I'm looking forward to getting him off live ghost shrimp and onto tilapia/MS very soon. YAY!

Nice TT, they're one of my favorite fish.

Currently have a 4 incher that contrary to previous experience is extremely sociable and always out and about exploring the tank. What's yours like?

Considering the eel has only been in my tank for a couple days it hasn't been too social. Lots of fish are bigger. Lol however, I did catch it scoping out the other side of the tank once and has moved into new quarters a couple times now. I think there is some promise of a social creature once there is some more size.

The one time it checked out the other side I caught my indo dat trying to test it for food. I quickly got him some tilapia to fill up on. ;)

Oh and thanks by the way!

You should have seen the guy at my lfs when I asked to see all 5 of them. That was entertaining watching him try to net each one. :screwy:

Got a couple pics of the eel last night since he was moving around more than usual and right underneath my dat. I think he is starting to associate me with food finally too.


Sorry for the bad pics.
