It will most likely go after your inverts. You can feed a variety of food, I feed frozen lancefish, krill, mysis. I also keep my SG at 1.025-1.026 and yes a 55G would be fine just make sure that he can get to his food before the other fish eat it, they are slow generally however mine will eat from my hand even though thats not recommended. Make sure also you have alot of live rock for him to hide and also make sure you have a covered top because they WILL jump out

when u say go after inverts do you mean just mess with them? or try to eat them?

so how do you keep up your cleaning crew do you just replace what the eel eats all the time? if so sounds like that could be expensive.
