| |
| [[File:3DS SuperMario 6 scrn06 E3.png|thumb|left|A Spike Eel in [[World 7-1 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 7-1]] from ''Super Mario 3D Land'']]
| |
| In ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', Spike Eels appear only in underwater tropical [[level]]s, notably in [[World 3-2 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 3-2]], [[World 7-1 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 7-1]], and [[Special 2-2]]. Spike Eels stay in holes and swim in [[Mario]]'s (or [[Luigi]]'s) way, like [[Maw-Ray|Unagi]] and [[Gringill]]s. They take 15 hits to defeat with the [[Fire Flower]] or [[Boomerang Flower]], but can be defeated in a single hit with invincibility or by transforming into [[Statue Mario]] and crushing them. They can also be attacked from the front or behind.
