Información del producto

🐟 Tire Track Eel – (Mastacembelus armatus) – Large and Hardy Spiny Eel for Sale

The Tire Track Eel (Mastacembelus armatus) is a striking and intelligent spiny eel species named for the intricate, interwoven dark markings along its light tan to cream-colored body, resembling a tire tread. Native to rivers, streams, and floodplains across Southeast Asia and India, this species can grow impressively large and is known for its curious, interactive nature with its keeper. The Tire Track Eel is a master escape artist, so aquariums must be securely covered.
