hey, i was checking out this site and saw the picture of your spiny eel. it seems i have an eel of the same species as yours (and just a little larger). what do you know about yours specifically? i've seen so many websites and books with conflicting scientific names for this particular eel and conflicting estimates of its ultimate size. what is its scientific name? i purchased it labeled as a "zigzag eel" about 1 1/2 years ago, and he's my favorite fish by far. my friends, well two of them, have started an "I HEART EELY" fanclub, even. i also have another eel, definitely a tiretrack eel based on books and websites that actually agree with each other, and he's inventively named "eely #2" and, fyi, he also has a fanclub.
