THE ELECTRIC EEL FINISH CAME OUT...

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
NOPE....HAD IT WITH A TIGRINIS...AROS...BICHIRS...NO PROBLEM...

THEY ARE GOOD COMMUNITY FISH IF THE FISH IN THE TANK ARE LARGE ENOUGH NOT TO FIT IN ITS MOUTH...BUT OVER TIME MINE BEEN TRAINED TO EAT SHRIMP AND BEEF HEART SO NO PROBLEMS...
 
They ARE "peaceful" but it only takes one bad day to give YOU one of the worst days. Why risk it, like the others said?
I once tried my baby 9 incher with a larger lungfish, and after watching the eel shock the lungfish, I couldn't let it happen any further.

In addition, I'm concerned about SPACE, too.

If so, you ARE lucky - I personally wouldn't put my money (or other fish) on luck's side. Nice fish indeed.

Got plans for a BIG tank? Just saw your sig with what's in that 120.
 
Pushing the rules of monsterfishkeeping again...I like the look but wouldn't risk it myself.
