Now if it's a snakehead........ Lol.

But either way, try get a pic. That would be the ONLY way to get an ident.

actually most eels can spend an amazing time out of water sometimes days and still be alive

do you have a cucumber ? If so there is a fish that lives in cucumbers and will come out at night to feed .They look like eels and have a way of popping up out of nowhere.And no im not kidding , there called pearl fish.

I once got a small (3" ) eel in a shipment of rock. It swam around the tank for a few days, then never saw it again.

I've seen 2 eels arrive in live rock. Both my buddy and I ended up with small richardsons morays from a shipment of Bali rock. A lot of the air shipped live rock has only been out of the water for less then 48hrs so you would be surprized what we find still alive. After my tank crashed I cooked my rock for 4 or 5 months in a covered rubbermaid bin and the richardsons moray some how survived.

Wish I had got an eel LOL instead I got a fish that's prob going to grow to 3ft or somthing LOL if it survives in my sump anyway. LOL no way am I going to stick an unknown fish in my Display tank

Are you looking for snakeheads Denny? Lol.

Possible, but highly unlikely to survive transport and curing process.


Hear about a lot of carpet surfing eels, so denny, as much as I love yah, I don't see it.
