Liveaquaria recommends 50g min. but these eels can grow to 2' long & the bigger the better.

so do you think if i got another 55 and linked it to my system that woudl be good enough? it would be the only thing in the tank well and a cleaning crew. thanks for the link ive been looking at a couple young ones only 12 inch's long

yeah i think another 55gal tank would do just fine for a snowflake. be sure you got a really good lid on it.

Careful what kind of cleaning crew you have. My brother had one and it picked off his hermits one by one.
