Best Answer

Electric eels live in fresh waters of the Amazon and Orinoco Rivers, the basins in South America, in river floodplains, swamps, creeks and coastal plains. They often live on muddy bottoms in calm water and in stagnant rivers.

They are a FRESHWATER species. The name "electric eel" is also a misnomer, as they are more related to the Catfish than the Eel.
