Macrognathus Circumcinctus 12cm+
Overview
Banded Spiny Eels make an unusual addition to the peaceful softwater fish community. The aquarium should have a soft sand substrate so that these diggers can bury themselves, and plenty of hiding places amongst plant thickets, bogwood, caves, pipes and so on. As with most Eel species, frozen foods should be offered.
