hey peeps i would like to know where eel tailed catfish come from, and how big they are
 
The name eel tailed catfish is usually assosiated with catfish from the Tandus family which have species present in Tropical Asia and Australia. Depending on the exact species they can grow to sizes of up to (and sometimes over) 2 feet. The majority of species are brackish fish which will require some salt to be added to the water they are kept for their long term health. Like most catfish they are predatory and will eat any tankmates which are small enough to fit into their mouths.
 
Or a Clarias Catfish? These are sometimes refered to as Eel Catfish. If its one of these then it grows big, eats LOTS and isnt suitable for a tank under about 150gallons.
