Pet Swamp Eel

A couple clips of my swamp eel eating worms and breathing air.
1. Room temperature seems to be fine. From what I read, they are a tough species.
2. I have not noticed any changes in size the few months that I have had it.
3. I feed it earthworms when it gets "hungry" (it will cruise around the tank, as if hunting), but I usually keep a guppy or two in the tank for him/her to eat as well. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guppy)
4. I have not been "bitten" by him/her. It has attempted to "suck up" the siphon I use to clean the tank, but nothing more. It doesn't have teeth, so I can't imagine it hurting.
Here is a photo of my eel hiding in a strawberry pot:

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD A SWAMP EEL BE RELEASED INTO THE WILD. THEY ARE A KNOWN INVASIVE SPECIES!

It looks more like a legless salamander than a fish, in my opinion.

Is that the asian swamp eel? Where did you buy from?

@ShinobiClique
Yup, it's an Asian Swamp Eel. I got it from a local Asian grocery store.
