I've noticed out of the two eels i've added to my 29g, one hangs around in a plastic plant (literally!) and the other seems overly-friendly with everything else (especially my serpae tetras!). My school of tetras (6) seem to become nervous once the eel(s) begin to roam about, I'm a bit worried if I should remove the eels or not. . . anyone know of the eels to be agressive?

So far I've seen no injuries, and the mollies don't seem to mind the eels.

Thoughts/suggestions?
 
I have not heard of peacock eels being aggressive except with smaller fish they could possibly eat. Are there enough hiding spots ? Other than making sure they are fed well and have hiding spots I have no other suggestions.
