Make sure you drill a LOT of holes, especially near the edges in the bucket the eels sit in. I've seen a lot of bucket set ups that just don't drain enough. There's often still enough slime to weaken and kill the eels. I usually throw some bubbleweed in there too and I've been able to keep the serpents alive for 3+ weeks.
