I had to move in with my parents because i couldn't find a job. My 55 gallon tank has been dismantled and is in storage. My eel is now residing in a 25 ish gallon cooler. His filter light and heater are set up and i was able to capture about 5 ghost shrimp to keep him company.

I am taking this opportunity to acclimate him to SW... right now the SG is only up to around 1.015 i plan on having him at 1.020 by August.

So far he seems to be doing well, I will post pics of his habitat ASAP and i hope that I can help other ppl that are having to move large fish.

He's still not eating... and to post pics i would have to find the cord for my cam and you know how that is when there are boxes everywhere.

I'll try to keep this updated. i think i might try garlic tommorrow to see if it will get him to eat.

yeah my eel just stopped eating one day and straved himself to death he was even in sw

Yeah still not eating... I'm about to descide to just freeze him or something... Now i have to start thinking of my next project... im thinking about a small reef so it would be easier to move and selling my 55 gallon. I'll keep you updated on every thing.

That sucks Predator.

Predator - how is your eel doing?

Is he still holding in there?

What kind of FW eel do you have? This is my Echidna rhodochilus
