Nice fish! Your eel will need a bigger tank as I'm assuming this one is 10 gals or less
Please correct me if I am wrong

 

[hellaasian]

Its a four gallon and no lol thats the max size its called a fantasy eel its a newly discovered speicies

 

[bettaowner]

What's the scientific name.

 

[hellaasian]

Dosent have one yet lol

 

[absolutangel04]

The fantasy eel is part of Macrognathus genus, but has not been given a species name yet. It seems to stay around 2 inches, but other than that, is similar in care requirements to other spiny eels as far as is currently known.
Awesome find! Where did you manage to snag one of those guys?

 

[aqua_chem]

Wetspot has been selling them lately via Aquabid.
