Wow that's terrible. Sorry for your loss.. What a bizarre way to go.
 He tried to swim into it? What is it, probably 1/2" or 3/4" just enough to accomodate the eel?

in deed, it's called Murphey's law.
"Matter will be damaged in direct proportion to its value" or "If there is a possibility of several things going wrong, the one that will cause the most damage will be the one to go wrong." Really sorry for your loss. That was not something you could have expected. Quote:

No, it's a 1" pipe and he somehow wedged himself in. It had a bunch of sand in it so it was narrow where he was. I'm sure he was just snooping around looking for pods or something. I just came home from work and his face was inside the pipe and I could barely pull him out. He looked totally fine otherwise. REALLY bizarre. Definetely wasn't the eel as he is way too small and totally ignores all the fish.

I've seen that tube and the angel in your tank and I can' fathom how it could have gotten stuck in there. You gotta chalk that up to a fluke incident though -I thought that was a great setup and the eel certainly loves it.
Sorry for the loss though.
