Glad to see that the eel is eating now.

Nice update!!! You’re a good fish Dad. 😊

I kept an electric eel almost 20 years ago. Hands down the hardiest fish I ever kept. Survived ph crash, heater failure in summer and winter. Ate anything, including algae wafers

What was the size of the tank and how many gallons do you recommend?

​@@tucker8364 I've been wondering this myself as info on how to care for these creatures is fairly hard to come by, yet finding videos of them being fed certainly isn't. I've heard 700 gallons is too small yet other sources say 2040 Litres (bit over 500 gallons) is about the bare minimum with room for upgrades.

That's because it shouldn't be in a tank!

Gallery looks great! Eel is super cool! Thanks for taking us with you on this adventure.

So glad the eel is doing better! Was really hoping the King could convince it to eat :D Also, that face peeking out of the pipe!! So cute in a prehistoric kind of way! Need an acrylic LED sign with that face etched in to light up when Eelon puts off energy

I can’t imagine the sense of relief you must’ve felt when he gobbled up that shrimp! Way to go Tesla!

Glad to see your electric eel is doing better

Awesome! Congrats on coming up with the different ideas to keep trying until one finally worked. A hunter's gotta hunt. He's so cool to watch up close.

Joey! Thank you for sharing this first hand experience getting the eel to start eating and your pellet tricks. These are gonna help a lot of people!!

Way to go! Really glad you got your eel to start eating. I hope he really thrives.

love the galley and happy the eel is eating now!! He’s so beautiful

😍 That 1st bite is so satisfying 😍

excited to see everything moving fast in the gallery and love what your doing congrats but I wanaa see the process like the tanks longer videos and more hopefully!!

That's awesome 🙏 glad to see eelon eating . I never would have thought of feeding that way that's all those years of experience coming through right there 👌

i really like the rack system. I like that the tanks don't have a harsh border on them. the rimless look is nice

Glad to see Eelon is getting comfortable with his new home and eating cool

This is awesome update . Yes he eating know.🐟😀👍 Joey that was smart to put the shrimp water in the tank. Great feeding video.

You know, it's simple little tips like this that can save fish. Such a great idea to get it to eat. This is why I watch videos like these. I wouldn't probably of thought of that, but because of your video I am armed with more information that may be useful for the future. Love the new look of the 2000g. It's nice and clean looking. Can't wait to see the next video. 🤘

I’m a huge fan you inspired me to start my own channel keep up the good work!

Love the colors of the 2k and happy to see he’s eating. Gallery looking great. Remember I told you, Bob Ross got nothing on you 😂🤙🏻

Great news! Awesome fish choice. Sure hope you come round and invest in some Autralian lungfish! Now that would be the ultimate prehistoric fish to raise big and breed!

Happy to see it doing well

Hey Joey no-doubt-about-it the coolest fish ever on any KZread Channel ,please do regular updates a lot of us could never keep a fish like that but would love to ,I'm glad he's eating for you I bet it'll start to get real plump good job can't wait to see more videos on him

Congrats on getting eel to eat!!! So creative how you did it and caught it on video EPIC

Really pleased he's eating! The eel is the coolest thing in the fish room at the moment! 👍

So glad its eating finally and that things worked out well in the end. That was was a bit nerve wracking wondering how he was going to do.

thanks for the update. I was really wondering if he finally started eating.

This is so cool, please keep posting updates about this guy!

Thank God you figured out what works for him and got him to eat, such a great dad that he has now, 👍👍👍

A great dad, seriously??

Right on Joey! Glad he is eating now. I am very interested to see if he ends up eating pellets in the future. I need to try that "sneak a pellet" trick!

Cool fish tanks, beautiful fish and great videos ! Good job Bro ! 🎉

I am so glad the eel is eating, thanjs for the update

This really shows a deep understanding of fish

Personally, I would still leave the pipes, unless you hate them. But yeah. Definitely more taller plants. He'd like them and they're pretty. 😊 He's got a cute face

Some floating plants like water Lilly’s would look amazing in the eel tank. With the long roots for cover

Looks like he's settling in👍

I LOVE electric eels so much. Hes so cute!!! ❤❤❤

God damn I absolutely love how the gallery is looking ❤️

I actually saw them at the Seattle Aquarium years ago, feeding there electric eel Giant Nightcrawlers . It was a massive old Eel, and he was slurping those worms down.

More videos on him please, new here and i loved that you got such an interesting fish right when i subscribed

Really great to see it eat. Always a worry with new fish. Especially something like that. I can imagine it was crazy expensive.

Great job!

I'd like to see you do a curious tap on the side of the fish. Brave wilderness did that. He felt a little shocked, but he wasn't hurt. He also touched him where they don't give us much shock.

yup back when i used to have some tanks the first thing i always tried to do was see what kind of care/maintenance they needed and food before i got anything, btw, its always far better to own your own place if you don't do not get serious.

I'm so glad you got him to eat! this just came up in my feed, so I'm new here. Were you able to get him some more plant cover? Also, what about getting him a single longer piece of pipe? i love this little guy and would love to learn/see more! 🩶

So glad to see he is eating!

I suggest use the cocktail shrimp. They use the minerals & nutrients from the shell

Well done getting him eating n all the best with him buddy

I love him/her..❤the best to you!! 👍

Glad he is doing well !

yay! nice!

The white in the gallery Looks amazing

I think the electric eel is one of the best additions you've made to the gallery. there's so much potential with him on a research level, but also an artistic level to find out what scape he likes.

Yay he's eating! ❤

He is so cute.

Nice trick to get him to eat. I knew if anybody could figure that one out. It would be you. Congratulations

Finally... eelon is doing fine... thanks for this update...

Looks like the basilisk out of Harry potter and chamber of secrets when it's swimming through the pipes

Nice to see bro. Cool fish.

I’m so happy your eel is eating again. Never thought I would find an eel so cute; thanks for sharing.

Glad he is eating! 😊

Pleased to see him eating.😊

A new member I love your program keep it coming❤️💪

He's adorable, like a long, legless axolotl! I want one.

Beautiful

Awesome!

So happy to see him eating!! Maybe he would like a cave to hide in. I can just imagine him curled up inside with his nose poking out! The gallery is looking great

So glad he is eating!

I was worried but I should known you'd figure it out

Great job BIG DOGGIE 💯👣

Have you felt the corners inside those pipes? The edges are super sharp

this was the best video ever!!!

glad hes doing good

glad the eel started eating.. I bet you could put leads to an led sign or light and when he pulses it would light up...

How about some cork/drift wood or branches? Thats what they tend to be around in the Amazon

Good that he is eating. Would a hide/pipe made from a conductive plastic be for inviting over the non conductive ones u are using. There is conductive pla for 3d printers.

Yay you and the eel!!!

Gallery looks dope, I think you should ditch those DIY lights and throw some of those black box lights on top. It would make them pop more and match them aquarium theme.

So Awesome.

Look at the gallery. Looks amazing

nice but what can it power

not directly related to this video but does your book include how to build aquariums in detail? Including type of acrylic , thickness of acrylic formula, what to ask for when ordering the acrylic, best tips etc/ If yes, remind me the name so I may purchase.

That feeding technic was some ninja sh1t!! Really cool

Coolest pet ever 😊 I setup a mini pond 😊

Aye he'll be in healthy shape soon!

Congratulations

What happened to the koi??? Swim/pond debacle

Real happy to see him eat cujo that's what he looks like maybe that'd be good name for him glad to see he's got a happy place to be

I love the eel.

Cool. That size will Nail you big time if he feels threatened or you try to touch him. He will light you up before your finger touches him. He pretty big and very cool. I think in a couple weeks you'll be able to pet him.😅❤

I've been wondering about the electric (quasi) eel. It's fascinating, if unusual fish to keep.

You are the master

Super exciting that Eelon is finally eating! 🎉

Eeeelllon eating whooo hooo about as close to having a dinosaur as you can get safely

Glad the eel is finally eating. Do you have a boy or girl eel?

That was smart

Nice lungfish. I hear they are tasty. Be careful handling it.

Happy to see him eating.

cool fish

Like the saying on jurassic Park, he doesn't want to be fed he wants to hunt.
