Yeah, it seems like there was a bad batch at one point.
Most eels come from one distibutor, me and the gang buy our eels at different places, but there was a batch that it seemed we all lost an ass load of em from at the same time. Sucked.

If one dies, it is amazing how quick the water turns putrid.
