Hey y’all,
so I bought a couple of garden eels from Liveaquaria about 2 months ago. I put them in a 20 long with a ton of sand and a heater, a power head and a sponge filter. They came in alive and one started eating, I never saw the other one eat. After a while I didn’t see either of them for weeks, assumed they had died. I turned off the tanks everything, their heating, water flow, light….everything. 2 months after this, I did a water change on this tank so I could receive some clownfish my friend bought for his new tank. I went to feed those clownfish today, and when I did, one of the eels came out looking right as rain. The other one ( which I never saw eat) also came out later. I am absolutely at a loss for how that’s possible, they had no oxygen, no heat, no food…nothing for months. And now their eating and coming out not even looking skinny..I don’t understand.
