'is able to' must be used instead of 'could be'. Please, correct it.

It's not in past. It's a fact. Say - Rain could flood garbage. Wouldn't it be changed to - Rain IS able to flood garbage?

ANSWER :
An abnormal eel was able to swim exceedingly well .
DETAILS :
The tone of the sentence is past.
This we know from the letter " could ".
Hence we will use here "was" while rewriting .
The word " to " will be added after able .
Then "swim" will remain present .
