i’ve had a freshwater eel for a while but don’t know what it is… It’s dark silver, lighter on the bottom, long 1 piece dorsal fin. head is shaped that of a fish head but flat, it is about 40cm in length. fairly sure that it is not a “rope fish”. It is housed with several african cichlids, a 15cm long albino sucka,1 chinese algae eater, 5 mystery snails, 1 spiny/tyre track eel, 1 small bristle nose pleco and several shrimp (not sure of breed). Environment good condition with lots of live plants, some hiding places, good water condition, etc. Both eels a very active (day and night) all fish are hand fed. The tank is only though 3-4 foot long, but a good start!
Feed: live bloodworms and shrimp, frozen bloodworms, ready to introduce frozen brine shrimp! small and medium floating cichlid pellets, cichlid flake, algae bits, on occation feeder fish.
