There's alot more to tank size than the size of the fish. These are aggressive eels that have rows of sharp fang style teeth that rip and tear apart fish, fish are their main diet. They are strong dynamic swimmers that will get as thick as a man's forearm. Please don't listen to someone that has a baby banana eel that they have had for a couple of months, and tell you that they are a model citizen. And sadly most never keep snowflakes to maturity and they deserve a larger tank than most provide. If you were to keep the banana eel alone in a 90g or with another comparable eel that would be fine. But for any fish to survive, a 180g would be the smallest tank appropriate, the fish would be the size and aggression to need at least a 180g.
Imma just quote lion king on this, they are much better with predators than i am

cheers but was also looking at his past posts and he also said if they have been raised from juvis they get used to food coming to them so stop feeling the need to hunt this has been in captivity since the start of the year i'm not sure what size they got it at but its 12" long now so must have been small

ChatGPT will also say it is ok to put a checkered wrasse in a 30g. If you are not familiar, they do get rather large, 11" full grown. Someone needs to really train the AI a little better.
