Well, I'm thinking about getting a few Garden Eels. The tank is going to be a 28 gallon high Marine PLANTED tank(diff kinds of algae and such), dimensions are: 24 inches long, 20 inches high, and 12.5 inches wide. The sand bed is going to be 6-7 inches deep. I know that they need very good water quality, but that wont be a problem at all because the tank is going to be full of diff algae and such. What are your thoughts? Got any info?
-Thanks!

Max size 1 foot, 2 inches. The only thing they do is sit in the sand bed. (they need very deep sand beds)

Ok maybe I reacted a little too much
But I just here they shouldn't be in small tanks. lol
lol That's because they need very good water quality. A 100+ gallon reef tank has much better water quality than a 30 gallon reef. But the tank I'm setting up is going to be a marine planted tank, so the water quality is going to be very good.
