Friday i went to feed my fish and could not find my eel anywhere i didnt think much of it but it now has been 3 days and no sign of him someone help out!!
Are you positive its not hidden in the rocks somewhere? I've heard that they can get out of small openings in the top and usually end up on the floor. I've also heard of them ending up in sumps/fuges.
I plan to get one in the near future (just need to find a LFS that had one) and this stuff worries me.

So its not in the tank, sump, fuge or carpet? What else is in the tank? Maybe got eaten?
Keep your eyes peeled. I didn't find mine the first time for 5 days. I put some food in the sump to catch it.... They are darn near impossible to catch, slimy little buggers. They can hide for several days if well fed also. Good luck.
Do you have any cats or dogs???
I have one and you should see how fast they are on hardwood floor being chased by a dog. Lol luckily I got him back in the tank and he's doin good. Hope you find yours and he's ok!
Sooner than later the smell will lead you to it, if its'sout that is.
