I was wondering if anybody on here has ever been able to breed fire eels. I know its very difficult and im not saying i wanna try it right now but i am just curious. after searching on google i've found some articles but none mention what actually happens during spawning and what pre-spawning behaviour should look like. I'd really like to know this so maybe somebody here can help??

spawnings have been reported in captivity in large tanks. The pH was neutral and the hardness was moderate (dH 10-15). The temperature was warm 78 degrees. 800-1200 eggs were laid in floating plants. Not much is known about the breeding procedure. The babies grow very fast at thier early stages provided they are properly fed.

I agree with armac. I think they'd be quite large. I've seen them as big as my leg.
I'm curious, what makes you think you have a pair?
