Harley,
I have the same banana eel, canary etc....You probalbly are aware...anyway, I noticed that you asked about feeding it. They do start out timid. I had to train mine with a feeding stick but then he started taking big krill off the ground, and then diversified to silversides too. Now, he eats like a beast, at 2 ft long. It took him 6 months to become a more aggressive feeder and he will steal fish and shrimp out of other fishes mouth. Give y our eel time. Try and introduce some kind of fish to his diet to diversify. He'll come around and eventually be ready for your 240.
