Electric eels are nocturnal, carnivorous predators that primarily consume fish. However they also eat crustaceans, insects, amphibians, and occasionally small mammals or birds. Juvenile electric eels feed on invertebrates like shrimp and crabs, while newly hatched eels consume eggs from later clutches. They hunt in murky South American waters using electrolocation to find prey and electric shocks to incapacitate it. . . #aquarium #fish #fishtank #animals #plantedtank | UaruJoey
