LOL Always goes back to those live worms...UGH!!! I don't wanna touch worms. Of course leave it to me to get an eel that has to be stubborn! I think I will try the chichlid sinking pellets first :)

Ok, I have to ask since I didn't really get a reply last time. What else do these eels eat, I need to try something other than the bloodworms because Gonzo is not liking them at all. I put them in and he runs like he just saw a ghost or something!! Weirdo! Lately I've been watching him and he...

I have a little opening in my lid by the filter and Gonzo worries me everything he swims up there, but luckily he hasn't tried to jump out lol!! As for the them burrying themselves, Gonzo has never burried himself in the gravel. Every now and then he gets spooked and hides behind the plants at...

He doesn't seem to be starving by any means! I quit worrying about him and his eating cause he wouldn't be alive at this point if he weren't eating!! What else do they like to eat and maybe I can try something different when I run out of worms? Any suggestions?

I can't guarantee that there are since my other fish love them as well!! When I put the worms in, he swims to the other side of the tank and hangs out like he's mad at me for trying to feed him lol! Silly fish!

I'm starting to really not like Gonzo lol! I still really don't know if he's eating the worms, but he seems to be doing just fine! Only other food I stick in there are flakes so he's eating something! I'm jealous cause I can't hand feed him...grrr! Gotta love him though, the only hiding he does...

Yeah all my fish are weird so he would fit right in lol! There's movement in the tank all day long. I have two kissing gouramis that chase each other all day. I do aquarium maintenance like I should. As a matter of fact I just cleaned the tank a week and a half ago.... And shame on you taking...

I have to say, I really think Gonzo is eating flake food. He was being lazy at the bottom of the tank inside a bridge all day long and as soon as I fed the other pigs their flake food he came rushing out and at one point I saw him eating on something! I don't put the worms in until night and I...

I really don't know if he's eating but he seems to be doing just fine! He's being lazy right now but he has been out all over the tank and hasn't once burrowed himself in the gravel. He lays in my dragon, but my kissing gourami won't leave him alone lol.

lol! I must admit I used to watch it, but don't remember the characters!

Lol...sure hope you have kids to be watching Teletubbies!

Lol he sure does...i named him gonzo after the muppet cause of the long nose :)

I guess its sunday therefore he can be lazy like everyone else lol! Im still questioning whether or not hes eating at the moment though.

Hes been out a little bit since I posted...the temp in the tank right now is 78...had to turn the heater up last night cause it got pretty cold weather wise and I haven't adjusted back yet... what does he need the temp to be?

Another question lol... I haven't really seen my eel eat...I've tried the turkey baster, I've tried turning all lights out then feeding even though its kinda hard to tell if he ate then, but today he hadn't been as active! Maybe its just me being a worry wart but ever since I put him in the tank...

lol Yeah that's too funny, but definitely true!

Way to rub it in! Just kidding :) He comes to my hand as if hes curious so hopefully someday I will be doing that as well! Fingers crossed lol

Yeah well I hope someone comes along with those worms so they can touch them!! I turned the lights off then put some bloodworms right in front of him and he stayed in the corner with them for a few mins...hopefully eating them!! We shall see!

Okie Dokie! I've been sitting here watching him and he keeps sticking his nose in the gravel like he's searching for food, but I know by now the other fish have eaten all the worms! Pigs! I even fed them before trying to feed the eel. I'll try giving another dose of worms before turning the...

Ok my eel people...another question! I have tried feeding my new guy the frozen bloodworms (and yes they were thawed first lol) and he doesn't seem to want to take them. There was one by a rock at the bottom of the tank and he poked at it then turned the other way and went about his business. Is...

Thanks!

lol! yay go me!! That was my goal the whole time! :)

Hey guys, got my eel today and I love it!! I was a bit worried that I was gonna let him out the bag and he would immediately bury himself in the sand, but not the case at all! He hasn't hidden one time!! I did get the frozen bloodworms and tried to feed him some tonight after feeding my other...
