The Achilles Revealed mosaic from Zeugma (southeastern Turkey) depicts Achilles (disguised as a girl) being discovered by Odysseus on Skyros island. The mosaic decorated the bottom of a pool with a waterspout in the impluvium of the House of Poseidon in Zeugma. Dated to the 2nd-3rd century CE. On display at the Zeugma Mosaic Museum in Gaziantep.
can someone please tell me what the fuck I just saw
this guy is just keeping a shit ton of eels in a storm drain? There’s a water filtration system down there? the water is clear?? there’s crawfish?? they possibly ate the other crawfish??? there’s an aquarium above the pool???? he’s just tossing animals in there to be eaten maybe???
what kind of pit is this? what happens when it rains, do the eels get washed away? what’s with the aquarium?? Is this like a well on his property or city infrastructure???
context
source is i follow this guy on tiktok
the eel pit is a rain reservoir under his house, yes its his, yes hes allowed to do this
hes set up a filtration system so that all water going in is safe for the fishies and its an reservoir so theyre not getting wooshed away anywhere
its come pretty far along now, and theyre all doing well
the pit also has a few catfish now, and a couple crayfish
everything in the pit is named
the eels are mostly named eel puns and he can in fact tell them apart
one of the eels is named crunchwrap supreme and that one seems to be his favourite, as it he can hand feed it and its friendly with him
as for Why he made this into an eel pit the answer is basically he works at a fish husbandry store and he always wanted a bunch of eels
