    greedy fish!

    went to feed my electric eel "indiana" realised ooops no food left, so thought for a change she could have some of one of my swordfish steaks, diced some up. A whole steak later shes full! GREEDY FISH!

    I can believe they take a lot of feeding with the size they grow too in a short time

    nah no way, these guys are finicky when it comes to food, sometimes she will eat every single day and on the hunt for food. Being young and a large growing fish they eat a whack whilst growing(very surprising how much she eats) around breeding season though at the natural times they would breed in the amazon or due too water levels drop desperately low she will go upto a month not eating anything naturally(wwird i know), even while young and immature, done it last year and year before at exact same time and had me worried at first. a gluttoness species but to a point most of the time but snotty on what they fancy. can be difficult eaters
