    Man I love Macrognathus. But I've wanted more captive bred ones
    It's also really annoying when people don't share cause it's an entire family of fish thay are solely wild caught at the moment which is easy to have something happen and damage the ability to keep them

    My fire eel, which is still small, has a great personality, but you're right when you say you don't really see them much other than at feeding time. I have never had an issue with him in my community tank either, and I would imagine you're correct yet again in that these smaller cousins will be the same.

    I really think these are going to take off once they become more numerous. A true nano spiny eel (with an outgoing personality)
    is just too enticing for fishkeepers.

    Hmm. Def may keep someday but currently focused on my tubs and maybe specific Koi breeding. I know, not your thing. BUT I do have a new crop of Myuki fry!
    My tubs so much more rewarding than tanks!
    The Orange neos I got from you are doing well. Neos seem to be good for my water.

  • @jankbitchvic4781
    @jankbitchvic4781 7 місяців тому +9

    Captive eels basically have to be tricked into breeding by artificially changing their hormones and forcing them to mature. Once they’ve matured and bred… they die. That’s why in the Sargasso Sea we see adult eels go in and baby eels come out, but never the other way. I don’t have specifics on hormones and levels, but that’s the only successful method of captive breeding eels we have so far. Anyway, that’s what we know so far, it’s hormonal change we don’t typically see in captivity.

    • @pinheadlarry5616
      @pinheadlarry5616 4 місяці тому +3

      yeah no you’re talking about actual eels. The “freshwater eels” referred to in this video aren’t even very closely related to actual eels, people just call them that because they look kinda eel-like.
      They breed like most other freshwater fish, they don’t die after they spawn, and they don’t live in salt water at any point in their lives.
