the eel looks like a tier track eel but it is very thin.Like a snake rather than a paddle.It has a sandy red back with red "pill" shaped spots on it.The rest of the body is ruby red,the head is arrow shaped.It is over 5 years old.

any ideas?

I just found out (10mins ago) that it eats shrimp....the few shrimp that survived my stupid neibourghs...



Oh and if anyone breeds FW feeder shrimp (I think there called ghost shrimp) PM me right away.

Yup, they're two different 'Shrimp', although not really a Shrimp if I recall correctly, but that's not the point...lol. Mysis relicta is the freshwater cousin. :smile:
