Do you think a snowflake eel would work in a Nuvo 30l?

In a word no.

They can get 30” long and as big around as a silver dollar or more

Just not humane to do that to them.
dang I’ve seen some people put an eel in 30 gallons but oh well

The eel gets 2-3ft and the bio load is insane. In my experience I wouldn't do a snowflake in under a 180. Dwarf moray are more manageable but you still need over a 30.

My nitrates creep up pretty quick in a 20L quarantine with a 16" baby
