What To Breed For Food For Eel

this thing is only 12 inches im not sure what i could give him from the ocean if its just shrimp, right now im feeding him brackish ghost shrimp

Make sure you gut load the shrimp with flakes. A live feeder shrimp is only really as nutritious as what they have eaten.

An eel that size will take small prawns and chopped muscle. Try speaking to CFC, he has raised a number of brackish morays.

Try lancefish, whitebait, mussels, squid and shrimp

All go down well with eels

You could also try earthworms

either that or i drop some cut up calamri in the tank, im sure with that smell the eel would love it
