There is currently 2 different species og Mastacembeus eels and totally 3 individuals in my 100 gallon tank, 1 Mastacembelus erythrotaenia and 2 armatus. They live in good harmony, only the fire eel gets a bit grumpy if someone gets to his caves/ territory. Nothing to worry about.
Nice eels,we never seemed to have luck with eels but got fire eel two weeks ago,went back 5 days later and got another from same tank where they had been spending all time together lying side by side,and the first one harassed second so bad we had to seperate within 5 minutes or we would have had only one left.Guess the first liked his new territory and wasnt about to share.
Very nice! I lost my 2'' fire eel this last year. I used to have a large tiretrack that would stick it's head three or four inches out of water and eat from my hand. Loved him!
