Eels remain suspended upright in water due to their unique body structure and buoyancy control. Their elongated, flexible bodies allow them to adjust their position easily, while a swim bladder, when present, helps regulate buoyancy. This enables them to maintain a stable position in the water column, conserving energy while they search for food or evade predators. Additionally, their muscular movements facilitate fine adjustments in orientation and depth.
