Dixon1990 Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 I just wanted to know if Fire Eels Would be alright in a asian tank with Snakeskin and moonlight Gourami's, Kuhli and other loaches, Tiger and Rosy Barbs, Volcano Rasboras and zebra and giant danios.

GZ_Loach Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 Most eels will eat whatever fits in there mouth, if this eel gets big then you MIGHT have problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David R Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 Most eels will eat whatever fits in there mouth, if this eel gets big then you MIGHT have problems Yeah but by the time the eel is big enough to eat the kuhliis and barbs you'll be so in love with it you wont care! I think you'll need something a bit bigger than a 60L tank... Pic from the thread Snookie posted My latest aquisition: The bin is 18" across (inside) so I'm guessing the eel is 16-17". He's only been in the tank for just over an hour and he's already eating beef heart from my hand! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dixon1990 Posted April 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 IT would be in a larger one than that. THe tank would be around 200L Probably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snookie Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 in the long term only your gouramis would be safe (ish) 200l would be a good start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon1990 Posted April 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 the gourami are about 13cm and 10cm at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
