At the lfs today they had this baby freshwater eels... they called them glass eels, they said they came in by mistake and had no need for them and actually gave me one of them. Ive tried to research but this is the only thing ive found http://www.outdooralabama.com/fishing/freshwater/fish/eel/.


is that what i have?? id love to post a pic but the lil things is about 6 inches long and maybe an 1/8 of a inch thick... its all by it self in a 20 right now. But according to that artical it will be 2-4 feet long!!
 
ill try to get a good pic tonight when i get home... but its like 6 inches long maybe an 1/8 inch thick, very lightly colored, you can kind of see through the skin. i did find a pic that looks alot like it.. like i siad its so tiny its hard to make out anything on it.

However this pic, as well as the link i found earlyer both refer to them as glass eels or Elvers
