use use a feeder stick and feed him some squid, silversides, or other meaty items. My eel took a day or two to start easily eating and now he wont stop. That is a nice looking eel and it is a Brazilian Dragon

yep its a brazilian, lots of those going around right now, mine didnt feed the first time i tried to feed him but now he wont stop. just give him time. mines favorites are live greenbacks, live fiddlers and frozen tiger shrimp (whole), he also eats mussels, clams and squidd once.
Great eel couldnt be happier but be careful they dont seem to have ANY vision! i was holding a fiddler right in fron of his face and he hit the glass instead. watch them fingers
Congrats

im not sure i could guarantee that they would not be eaten? i thought my goldentail would never eat any of my fish until i came home one day and my porcupine puffer was missing.
very nice eel though,his markings are very close to my jeweled.

i have mine with a v. lion but my lion is gigantic and they are also in a 300 gallon so they have tons of room to roam so they dont really encounter each other.. id say the dragon and def. the lion will need a bigger tank very soon! i cant imagine either of mine in a 125.. either way good luck with him, they are lots of fun have alot of personalitty but blind as a bat!
