What kind or what is it?
i.e. kabob stick, brand of store bought stick.. etc.
If you use tweezers, what kind as well? Plastic stainless steel.. etc.

I use these to feed my Eel. I like them, they are quite sturdy.

I use a wooden kabob skewer. Not ideal, but it is cheap and disposable.

I use chop sticks, one at a time. Sometimes the eel grabs onto it and wrestles it away from me, but it's too strong to really break and it floats back to the top. I find it convenient.

I have to have good tongs, my Sunset Wrasse is a horror show, it is a nightly game of "steal the Eel's food before he can get it".

Are you talking about as food or to hold the food? :)

I use something I put together with a clear feeding stick and 50lb fish line.
