Could use some help - has anyone had 2 snowflake eels in one tank?

I aquired a tank and it had a snowflake eel - I have one currently in a predator tank. I am trying to introduce the new snowflake and its not going well -

is this possible or should I remove the new eel?

suggestions would be great
 
I have 2 snowflakes in our tank. I have had them for about two months now and there haven't been any problems. I do feed them on seperate ends of the tank because if they are next to each other they both try to go after the same piece of food and there has been a little bit of a squable. Now our tank is a 240 gallon so they do have alot of room to have their own seperate caves. The only problem i do have is with the Black Hawain trigger. He has his own cave where he sleeps at night and he gets upset when they go over to that area.
 
I dont see any problem with two snow flakes. They are not very aggressive, in terms of eels. I only would be worried about them getting out of the thank lol. They are escape artists.
 
Pvc tunnels would be the best thing for two eels in one tank.They feel very comfortable and unthreatened if properly housed.Two snowflakes should work in one tank,definitely.
 
Thanks much for the info and encouragement - they seem to have settled down as I moved a few of the larger rocks around to change the scenery on the established eel.
Both look to be claiming certain areas with is fine

Thanks again for the help
