eels are pretty reclusive in the wild, they are stalker hunters, so you have to figure out a way that where ever he is "hiding" is able to be seen by you clear tubing, an acrylic box with some rock on top of it so you can see him under the rock? something like that, he has to feel safe and protected from preditors and hidin from "prey"........other wise , he'll be around come feeding time, have his messages ready for him to pick up then, lol

diatom - - is a normal progression in a tanks cycle, it's not bad......but not good either, it should clear up in a few days to a couple weeks or more, cut your white lights back as far as you can deal with, get a turkey baster, put some clear tubing on te end of it and blow everythin off a couple times a day or when you have time each day
