spotted this eel being delivered today. Its label wasn't out yet can antone identify it for me.
 
FOR SOME REASON I CAN'T ADD A PICTURE SO I SET IT AS MY AVIATOR. IT ISN'T GIVING ME THE OPTION TO ATTACH AN IMAGE.
 
Can't see very well as the picture is tiny, but it looks like either a tyre track eel, or mastacembelus dayi. It's more likely to be the former, as the latter is an expensive fish, and you'd know if you'd bought one, or if they were sale.
 
its from the congo if that helps thats where the shipment was from
 
I honestly couldn't make a better ID without a better picture. Have you considered uploading to photobucket.com?
 
I added a picture in a different post before but I don't know why the option isn't there now
 
They look slightly like some type of fresh water moray to me, but the picture is a bit small to tell properly.
 
No definatly some sort of masteocebelus species if have spelt that correctly or very similar
