JJ Welcome. They will last forever, I keep eels in a hole filled bucket in a stream and they last a long time.. If you can keep them shaded even better. I don't know what to feed them, but I know they get hungry. Earthworms maybe...

I have a spring fed pond on my property and for awhile kept eels in a shiner bucket in the pond. Fine until mid-summer when it gets too warm and they die.
As for food, the eels I keep in my tank do get hungry and I found that you can get tiny dried shrimp at any pet supply store. About 3 bucks for a can and it will last you all season.
P,
What about sinking them in the pond (like a metal eelpot with no escape/entry holes... used to use one at the dock till it rusted out (a few seasons) kept em out of the sun a bit too....
