An uncommonly imported and distinctly patterned freshwater spiny eel, the Black Pearl Spiny Eel (Mastacembelus notophthalmus) believed to inhabit Malaysia and Sumatra in Indonesia, but their distribution and habitat in the wild remains unclear. Like their close relative the Fire Eel, this species is often shy at first but are intelligent and personable fish which will soon learn to beg for food and recognize their owners. Largely insectivorous in the wild, they will readily feed on live earthworms at first and can be weaned on to frozen foods over time. Although they can and sometimes will eat smaller fish, they are not particularly active hunters and most fast moving tankmates will not be at risk of becoming a meal. Hardy and adaptable, they make an excellent addition to an aquarium large enough to house what will be a substantially large fish as an adult and will get along well with most tankmates.

The Platinum Endlicheri Bichir is a spectacular color morph of the popular Polypterus endlicheri recently introduced to the hobby through line breeding. The Platinum morph is distinguished by its uniform brilliant white coloration and black pupils. In the wild, the Endlicheri Bichir is a widespread species, found in various slow-moving shallow water habitats in West and Central Africa. Polypterus endlicheri is one of several so-called “lower jaw” group of Polypterus, so named for their distinctive heavy lower jaw that protrude over the upper lip.

One of the most iconic fish species of the Amazon, the Electric Eel (Electrophorus varii) is not a true eel but a knifefish – the only one in its family capable of delivering a powerful electrical shock. In the wild, these fish tend to be found in shallow, slow moving waters with lots of cover in the form of vegetation or fallen branches. Their electrical organ is used as both a defense mechanism against predators and to stun prey items. In the aquarium, electric eels are fairly hardy, but due to their huge adult size and dangerous shock they should only be kept by experienced hobbyists with a dedicated, large aquarium designed around this fish’s special requirements. Larger fish should be treated with extreme caution.
