Green wolf eel- tank size

[Han]

Just out of curiosity, I’ve been doing some research on green wolf “eels” and have found a lot of conflicting information about their tank requirements. Liveaquaria suggests a minimum tank size of 125 gallons, while many other sources suggest a minimum of 50. While I’m not familiar with this fish other than what I’ve read, I find it hard to believe that they really need a 125 when snowflakes get bigger and can be kept in smaller tanks.
Does anyone have experience keeping these fish? What size tank is generally acceptable to keep them?

Never kept one myself but I just looked on Live Aquaria and they say 50 gallons now? They aren't really eels but pseudochromis...cool fish. I bet it would be fine for a while unless they are more active than morays.

From what I’ve read they behave similarly to morays, so 50g minimum makes more sense than 125.
