I already have 2 peacock eels which are both grown to about 8 inches long.I've been wanting to add another but the only ones i see for sale are alot smaller at about 4 inches long.The owner of the shop has told me he can't get bigger eels the same size as my two and the small ones are what is sold.
Should i buy one? What worries me is if the little newbie will do ok or will it get picked on by the much bigger eels.
 
The tank size is 4ftx15"x15".I think it holds about 170 litres.
The fish in it are 2 peacock eels,growing really fast.Now about 8 inches long.
3 angel fish,medium size,and 1 African butterfly fish which circles the top.
 
Yeah you could get another one if your tank is 170L, it'll be fully stocked then for sure.

At 4 inches there should be no problem with them trying to eat the new one, just make sure they dont steal it's food. :shifty:
