Eel is a kind of fish that lives in the water and feeds on some aquatic organisms that also live in the water. Eel mainly eats meat and is a carnivorous animal. They can eat more kinds of food. When wild eels are relatively young, they mainly eat small aquatic insects and crustaceans. When they grow up, they can eat more kinds of food, besides the above two kinds of food, they can also eat fish, shrimp and crab. In addition, if there are decomposing carcasses of other animals around them, they will eat them.
Eels can also be raised artificially, and attention should be paid to feeding. When eels are small, they can be fed with small fish, shrimps, aquatic insects and other foods. After the eel grows up, it can be fed to some larger animals, such as fish, shrimp and insects. In addition, special fish feed contains more nutrients, which is conducive to the growth of eels. When feeding, they also need to adjust the amount of feeding according to their size.
It has been introduced above that eels mainly eat meat, belonging to carnivorous fish, and the number of meat that can be eaten is relatively large. Among them, small fish is a more important category. Wild eels will have the ability to hunt when they grow up a little, and they will catch some fish smaller than themselves. When they grow up, they can catch more kinds of small fish and their ability to hunt will be stronger. When eels are raised in captivity, they can also eat small fish.
