I agree with fishguy242. Give them a chance to establish their territory and place the pvc pipes at the opposite ends of the tank. The PVC pipe will give the littlest eel protection and will give you time to observe their behavior. Make sure to feed them both, one at a time so they understand they don’t have to compete for food. If things don’t improve, separate them.
