are there any eels that are preferably comfortable with eachother in 40 gallon?

i would like a snowflake and another eel. like a chainlink or something similar.

any suggestions?

snowflake will outgrow the 40 in time.

For how long? A snowflake isn't going to last long in there. They get 3 feet long- way too big for a 40g even if kept alone.

The only eels long term that can be kept together in a 40g are the dwarf and chestnut morays. The dwarf gets 12", and the chestnut gets 14". Good choices for a small tank.
