What kind of fresh water eels can you get for a fish tank?

Freshwater eels come in a few varieties such as the peacock eel, tiretrack eel, fire eel, etc. There is also what is called a freshwater moray, though I believe this eel to be mainly brackish and not truly fresh. Freshwater eels also include a species called the Polypterus, which include the Bicher which is commonly called the Dinosaur Eel. Freshwater eels are usually smaller and less aggressive than their saltwater brethren and generally spend alot of time buried into the substrate. There are eels from different locals offering choices to better suit the other tank occupants.

Can you put fresh water eels in a pond with koi?

It depends on the size of the eel and the koi. I have koi, and they are aggressive to other fish. I was raising a few small ones in a tank and they nipped the fins off my guppy. I wouldn't put the two fish together unless the eel is pretty big. Watch them for a few days and if the eel has injuries or is behaving strangely, take it out.
