Mike:
while i have seen SFE eat small fish, its more uncommon in fish tanks. usually the eels will blindly follow a scent trail and if the fish is in the way of said scent trail, then wham, the SFE will grab him. I have also seen people feed their SFE fish meat or small fish, and hence once they figure out fish are food, then small fish are game. Out of the blunt-toothed eels (SFE, zebra, chainlink) SFEs are really the only ones I know who will eat fish. I could never get my zebras to eat any sort o fish, and they didn't even like fish meat
Ditto on the Ph.D. dissertaion, you should see what i got mine on (teehee)
