Found my eel on the floor this morning!! Was not very happy but whoever said they were escape artists were right.
Got him and put him in my 55 community tank, then when I upgraded that I moved him over to the new tank but he started being aggressive so I put him in with my lionfish. He was doing real good, but guess he wanted to slip out the only possible place he could.
I have a glass canopy that is sealed the entire way around except in the back right corner where I have only my heater wire, the hole is not even as big as him. He must have pushed up the plastic part a little to get out.
Guess I'll have to cut out some of the plastic to fit the wire in it so it's completely snug, one of my LFS has an awesome snowflake eel that is about 3-4 inches long. (and only 20$ compared to petcos 40) Mine was 10-12 when I got him so he's always been a nice size.
