Asian Swamp Eel -
Monopterus albus
Order: Synbranchiformes Family: Synbranchidae Genus:
Monopterus
Monopterus albus
, called the
Asian swamp eel
in the USA, but also known as
rice eel
,
ricefield eel
or
rice paddy eel
is a commercially important, air-breathing species of fish in the family Synbranchidae. It occurs in East and Southeast Asia, where it is a very common foodstuff sold throughout the region.
The Asian swamp eel has a scaleless, anguilliform body that grows to a meter or less, typically 25 to 40 cm as an adult. As a swamp eel, it has a tapering tail and blunt snout, and lacks pectoral and pelvic fins. The dorsal, anal, and caudal fins are rudimentary, with the caudal fin often absent. These fins serve to protect the swamp eel against rolling, and assist in sudden turns and stops. Its gill membranes are fused, but one v-shaped gill is located beneath the head. Such a shape prevents reverse flow.
The colour is variable, but generally olive or brown, with irregular dark flecks. Individuals in Florida usually have a dark body and head, with dark olive or brown dorsal coloring and light orange ventral coloring. Individuals caught in Florida can be more colourful, indicating breeding for the pet trade.
The mouth is large and protractile, and both upper and lower jaws have tiny teeth for eating fishes, worms, crustaceans, and other small aquatic animals.
It has a wide distribution.
Monopterus albus
is native to much of East and Southeast Asia, ranging west as far as India.
M. albus
is native to the tropical and subtropical areas of northern India and Burma to China, Japan, and Indo-Malayan Archipelago, possible populations in Far East Russia and northeastern Australia might belong to different cryptic species. It is a common fish in India, Southern China to Malaysia and Indonesia.
M. albus
is a nocturnal animal. Its diet includes other fish, shrimp, crayfish, frogs, turtle eggs, aquatic invertebrates such as worms and insects, and occasionally detritus.
The preferred environment for the Asian swamp eel includes a wide variety of muddy, freshwater, shallow wetlands, such as rice paddies, ditches, ponds, marshes, streams, rivers, canals, lakes and reservoirs. Depths of less than three meters are optimal.
M. albus
can live in a wide range of oxygen levels. This fish can obtain up to 25% oxygen from air cutaneously if not using gills underwater.
The Asian swamp eel is hermaphroditic. All young are females. As juvenile fish begin to mature, some take on the masculine phenotype. Males are capable of changing sex, allowing them to replenish female populations when female densities are low. This change from one sex to another can take up to a year.
Spawning can occur throughout the year. Some Japanese and Chinese forms of
M. albus
exhibit a great deal of parental care. Large males construct bubble nests at the mouth of burrows and guard the eggs and young. In some Japanese and Chinese forms eggs are laid in bubble nests located in shallow waters. These bubble nests float at the water's surface and are not attached to aquatic vegetation. Females produce up to 1,000 eggs, each, per spawning event.
The fish is an important protein source for people in Thailand. It is cultured throughout Vietnam. In Indonesia, Cambodia, China, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, and other Asian countries, swamp eels are farmed in polyculture rice fields and sold as a food product with the rice crop.
