Hi. Many years ago I had a Tess Eel in a 180. Well recently I purchased an Eel from a private seller. He told me it was 22-24" and charged me $80. I picked up eel and brought it home and it was 15". It was a Snowflake and I went and bought two more Eels. A 12" Snowflake and an 11" Barred. I put all into a 120 gallon. The biggest Snowflake began attacking the other two. He would not stop looking for them. So he went into a 90 for time out. I didn't properly seal the lid and he got out and died. Ot was horrible because he was much bigger and more social than the smaller ones. So now I have ordered another 15" Snowflake to put in with the two eels. Most of the time Snowflakes will get along but it does concern me that the new one will be a jerk. Also the shipping scares me as I worked for fedex and saw wet boxes come in with fish.
