Comments:I had two tire track eel that is only supposed to grow to 12". They
both lived in a ten gallon tank with a bunch of other fish. The one, Spike, was about four inches long, the other,
Good-Year, about five. They would always stay by each other. They were both very active. I had Spike for about a
year when I just found him dead in the tank one morning. Good-Year died after abou a week because he jumped out. The
tire track eel is very fun to watch and is a great fish, but they are great escape artist.
