Fruju Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 Yeah, but then I would have to set up another tank for it :roll: not possible right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 can probably save one from a Sea Mart if you're desperate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquariumbeginner32 Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 Kind of :smot: but my cat catches eels :evil: :roll: :lol: Thankfully not too often. But boy are they hard to pick up! Last time she jumped in through the lounge window with one and dropped it onto the carpet in a hard to get to place (behind the recliner and coffee table) and I tried picking it up and kept dropping it ... eventually I managed to hold onto it long enough to chuck it into a plastic bag EWWW and then I took it outside. We have a reserve behind our house... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ally07 Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 Yeah, but then I would have to set up another tank for it :roll: not possible right now. You'd need a large swimming pool to house one properly methinks, not just a tank haha! My friend has a stream behind his yard and you can see dozens of eels there - absolutely massive. :nfs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanmin4304 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 I remember throwing some over the fence and into the school swimming pool. Great idea but didn't calculate on the chlorine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vavoli Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 Oh no!!! But so funny... would have been funny if there were kids in the pool :slfg: :slfg: :slfg: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquariumbeginner32 Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 I remember this camp I went to twice as a kid that had a lake with a slide going into it and I wouldn't swim in there because they told us there were eels in it. Not sure if there really was... but I wasn't going to find out LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
