I think garden eels need a pretty specialized setup. They stress pretty easy. Two-way glass for example, so that they can't see people staring at them, a small grouping as opposed to one solitary individual, and a really deep sandbed (like 12" even if you can manage it).

+1 for garden eels really require one complete set up tank ( at least 50 gal excluding sump ) without other fishes and to be kept in a small group is ideal. If I haven't introduce a pipefish which was carrying somekind of unknown virus, my garden eel may be still alive.
