Wondering if anyone has any suggestions on a food that the Brazilian Banana Eel just can't resist. Ours seems to be a finicky eater -- or maybe he just doesn't need to be fed very often. Not sure which it is, so I'm asking both questions. We can only seem to get him to eat occasionally. Sometimes he'll eat every other day and then he'll go 5 or 6 days without eating; and that's with us sticking food right up to his mouth on a stick. The one food we know he likes is only available at a store 2 hours from our house (World Wide Corals "Reef Mix", whatever that is). I won't travel 2 hours one way for a restaurant for myself, so the eel definitely is going to have to learn to like something else. I even tried high quality sushi grade albacore tuna tonight and he just sniffed it and backed away.
So, how often do they eat; how much do they eat; and what do they like to eat?
Thanks!
