Default Curious?

I am very curious as to the value of our Fire Eel, he is totally priceless to us and would not ever dream of selling him, he is like a puppy, feeding time and hes there! walk up to the tank and he greets you! He is 29-30 inch length and has roughly a 10 inch girth ...... like i said i am curious as to what his value would be.

Il try to get a few pics.

big fella!

I guess you would only get the true value if someone fell in love with it when visiting you Saz, kind of like a "i love that fish, woujld you consider selling"

not that you are, but i guess if you advertised it, you would not get much, or have to wait a long time to get something approaching its worth.

the most i have ever spent on one fish is only £20

I have no idea what he'd be worth, but I think he looks fantastic! How long have you had him, how big was he when you got him? What does he eat?? I'm intrigued by this BEAST! Lovely looking plec there too! How big is the tank?

"he" is a "she" i believe, unless "she" has had surgery recently, lmao

by the sounds of it, the fish is a cracker, they have small versions up in Crews Hill at the moment.

i think Saz has many, many tanks and some big-boy tanks too, she's out of our league Pete!
