Información del producto

🐍 Black Spotted Eel – (Mastacembelus dayi)

The Black Spotted Eel is a beautifully patterned spiny eel species, named for the scattered black spots covering its elongated, serpentine body. Native to freshwater habitats in Sri Lanka and southern India, this species is peaceful, intelligent, and enjoys hiding in the substrate during the day, becoming more active at night. Its striking appearance and calm demeanor make it a great oddball addition to large peaceful community or oddball tanks.
