Slimy eel
Slimy eel is a members item, with a high alchemy value of 1 coins. No shop sells Slimy eel and no monster drops it, so an Ironman makes it: it takes 28 Fishing and gives 65 Fishing XP, using 1 × Fishing bait.

Ironman verdict
Other sources include Eel swarm, Fishing spot (slimy eels), Fishing spot (Meiyerditch Dungeon) and Fishing spot (frog spawn, eels). Where the materials come from: Fishing bait (sold by Gerrant's Fishy Business for 3 coins). Making ten takes 10 × Fishing bait and gives 650 Fishing XP. Reaching level 28 Fishing takes 10,824 XP in total; the Fishing calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Fishing guide has the Ironman training route. 2 recipes use Slimy eel, including Cooked slimy eel and Whitefish. Slimy eel is members-only. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 1 coins.
