Plz ID this eel for me?

[virgildonatifan]

I have recently bought 2x 6cm eels and the lady at the petshop who sold them to me told me they are white eels but I can't find any fish profiles on white eels. If anyone knows exactly what they are can you please give me some specs on them?

Thanx

Looks like a loach.

I think it is Pangio piperata or a related species.

 

[Bogwoodbruce]

They do look like loaches.

 

[davo]

def. not an eel, loach is probable.

 

[fourty2]

looks like a Pangio anguillaris sort a thing...not sure though

 

[ShadowBass]

It's some kind of loach judging from the barbels on the face.

Definately not an eel.

I agree it's some kind of Pangio.

 

[FishRfine]

loach, not sure which kind

 

[ThePBM]

how much did you pay for the 'eels'

 

[ThePBM]

my guess is weather loach
