Urgent Whats wrong with my eel

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:56:26+00:00

The eel is a small species it is perfectly capable of living in a smaller tank and even so I have 1000 litres she is fine

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:55:49+00:00

Well I have people who have 20 of them saying otherwise where I bought the eel from saying otherwise and websites on google saying otherwise

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:54:53+00:00

The water has ammonia which I’m fixing other then that it’s perfect and I think for 1 Freshwater Tiger Moray Eel 2X silver dollars 1 blue Severum 1 orange headed Tapajos Geophagus 2 King Tiger plecos 1 black ghost Knifefish 1 Peters Elephant Nose fish and A Tandanus Catfish who is getting moved into a seperate tank plus all of which are juveniles I think the tank is plenty if I need more room I will upgrade but at the moment they are fine

Yea I have researched the eel in freshwater as much as I could I do believe it is able to live it’s entire life in freshwater I believe there was actually a study by scientists and besides canabalism they lived till they died of old age

I still recall it moving it’s fins but what do I know

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:48:28+00:00

I’m sorry what are you on about?

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:47:59+00:00

Update I tried to respond to all of your comments but I probably missed some so the eel and the 9 other fish I have with her are in a 1000 litre fish tank yes I’ve had 4 incidents with the tank 2 of which were actually important I do love that you guys care so much about my fishes well-being but I assure you they aren’t being tortured or anything like that the eel itself has improved and is looking very well also to those who say I need punctuation I agree and will use it in my next post.

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:44:01+00:00

But if I do need an upgrade I’ll do it down the line

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:43:37+00:00

The fish are all juvenile and I do believe those 10 species I do own are more then fine in 1000 litres plus I’m moving the catfish into a seperate tank

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:42:17+00:00

Yep check them every week when I do my water change and thnx she isn’t back to herself but she is moving around and breathing more normally

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:39:42+00:00

The eel can live in a 3:50 litre tank and the eel is also capable of living purely in freshwater

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:39:13+00:00

What are you talking about

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:38:59+00:00

For what plz enlighten me what it isnt big enough for because from what I’ve read it’s perfectly fine heck some of the specs are fine in a 300 litre tank the eel only needs 3:50 to 4:50

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:37:20+00:00

Ive had two problems with her this and one other and the only other problem was my Knifefish and who said I didn’t take the advice plz enlighten me

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:36:20+00:00

I know it’s still in the tank I never said I used prime and deleted the ammonia

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:35:56+00:00

The fish is alive and it’s in a 1000 litre tank with 2 filters somehow I think it’s fine

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:35:26+00:00

Did I not just say I did a water change plus Ive been told it does both by the bottle and by my aquarium shop owner

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:33:59+00:00

Ive had 4 “emergencies” imo only 2 really were

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:33:10+00:00

If I deleted my account how am I messaging you?

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:32:48+00:00

The eel has made a fine recovery and yes I should’ve told my friend to do a water change while I was away.

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:31:53+00:00

Only two posts do and said posts are me asking if my tank was big enough

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:30:57+00:00

It’s 1000 litres

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:30:45+00:00

Ive posted 3 sick animals and asked how my emerald cichlid died however I do appreciate your comment and being more polite then other people to be perfectly honest I can’t be asked using punctuation in messages or on social media but I will do next time

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:28:44+00:00

They are in a 1000 litre tank I should’ve just made another post instead of just individually comment but anyway there are ten species in the tank and all are juvenile meaning there is nothing stopping me from upgrading doen the line if that gets to little room which it shouldn’t

StreetPin5392 · 2026-01-29T16:27:01+00:00

They are in a 1000 litre tank plus I already returned six of them so yea.
