keeping eels?

[JLH]

Earlier this year I setup a 20 gallon tote in the basement with a good sized fish tank pump (for ~50 gal tanks) and have been able to keep 1-2 dozen alive for weeks with no problems changing the water every few days.

One question on water… are you guys using tap water or sea water? I’ve been tr#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g down to the salt pond with buckets to get sea water which works great but tap would be much easier.

I have always just used tap water.

Tap water. I keep mine under the basement stairs and it keeps the water nice and cool.
