Listen, I have eels that last a month or more. I use and old ccoler as a eel tank and 2 cheapo Wally world aerators. 4 air hoses into the tank and I keep the tank in the back of the garage where it is cool. I change the water every 3 days and never have more than 18 eels as the water gets dirty too fast.
Has worked for the last 5 years. Every once in a while I will lose 1 eel but I think that the ones I loose are sick anyway.

No boat, back in the suds.

I used to do the same thing to purge(starve) my eels before riggin em on tinsquids.Have em for months.They would litterally get like shoe strings.At first i would change the water often because the eat there own poop.after a while the water would no longer get dirty an i wouldn't have to change it out so often.
