I got a SFE a few days ago, and he wouldn't come out of his hole enough (he would come out most of the way, but never leave the whole completly). Today I had the idea of trying to handfeed him. I tried it, and it worked! I fed him about 4 peices of krill, and i only managed to get one bite, which only felt like a little pressure, and he immediatly let go when he realized it wasn't food. Now he is coming up and grabbing the food straight from my hand. It is a funny feeling when he rubs against my fingers. I'm very happy that he is eating, and I'm happy about the way he is doing it.
The best part about this eel is that he never hides, he is alway like at least halfway out of the hole just looking around, and his cave has two sides, so he moves between the sides.
