Mastacembelus erythrotaenia "Fire Eel" - Small
The Fire Eel is one of the largest spiny eels. It has a brown/black elongated body that is marked with bright orange to red horizontal broken lines and spots. It has a pointed snout and its dorsal and anal fins have orange to red margins.
This fish is a bottom dweller that will often bury itself in the substrate or hide in crevices and caves. It feeds on worms, insect larvae, crustaceans, fish, and sometimes plant matter.
Provide small grain, smooth gravel or sand so that the fish can burrow safely, as well as tubes or rock crevices for hiding places. This fish is peaceful when kept with large tankmates, but will often consume small fish.
