As promised, here are some pictures of the eels that I just took tonight. Most are of my largest eel. His name is Hulk and he is near 24” long.

Yessss! Hulk is well....a hulk. He certainly lives up to his name sake. In the last pic, I see him yelling :” hulk smash!” Truely beautiful pictures and a beautiful creature.

P.s. love the two vulture cats together. They are showstoppers. Love their names too.

Here’s my endli after its first taste of frozen tilapia, shrimp and scallops. I just fed a few pieces and I’m not sure if any of them were shrimp or scallops since the ratio is heavily tilapia. Didn’t take long for it to find the pieces and there was no hesitation to grab them and gulp them down.

Here are some pictures of my endli from tonight. I watched it eat and it was funny because the red wigglers were around the frozen tilapia mix and it was trying to eat the frozen tilapia, but kept getting a red wiggler in its mouth instead. Lol, it spit a red wiggler out three or four times before it got a bite of the frozen tilapia mix. Once it got that, it gulped it straight down. Now, if I can just get it to eat pellets...

Lol, I will try to work on it. Right now I’m hoping to get my two larger bass movedout of the tank in the next few weeks which will leave the endli and the smaller bass that I’ve been have trouble with. It should make it easier to start getting it onto pellets.

Thank you!

So, a little update, my endli is now eating pellets! I’m pretty excited. Not only is it eating pellets but I’ve got it on Massivore. After it ate the little bass, I wasn’t going to feed it for two weeks. Then, long story short, the other two bass ended up back in the tank with it (they are much bigger than the little one that was eaten). So, I was feeding them the carnivore pellets, and I saw my endli grab a few pellets that made it to the bottom near it. I went ahead and grabbed a few Massivore pellets and tossed them in and it found them a few minutes later and grabbed them up. The endli is about 7-8” long and I fed it five Massivore pellets tonight. It probably could have eaten more but I think five is plenty.
