Let me introduce you to one of my three baby electric eels... He's a wee little zapper at 6". His other companions are about 5" and 4" long. Like all of my other pet fish... I call them "Buntet".
After almost a week of not eating, they're now eating well and I feed them chopped up sharp-belly minnow... I am lucky as we have Bangladeshi shops around my area... They sell them frozen sharp-belly minnows and my baby electric eels love these chopped up fish. It's funny to see them with full bellies and they look like fat tadpoles with long tail!
Baby electric eels can grow to be about 24" in their first year of life. At the moment they must be kept separately as baby eels are not tolerant of other baby eels. They are veracious feeders and it's funny to see them swimming with their bellies full.
Now you can say that:
a. You have seen an electric eel
b. You have seen an electric eel pooping
c. You have seen an electric eels' poo
d. You now know the position of an electric eels' anus which is just below the gills
I can't wait for my eels to grow big so I can have them in one big tank.
πππππππThis was my most expensive fish as it swam up the sump and died after 1 hour πI bought this one 2 years back. After a month of planning and escape-proofing the tank, this one didn't escape, but swam into the sump... This is the only video I have of him ππππππππ
