I'm setting up what I was told was a 40 gal. aquarium. It's four feet long by 18 x 12 so whatever that is. I'm putting one or a group of spiny eels depending, not sure yet. I already have some kuhli loaches that are full length in a 30 gal. I wasn't going to put them together but I thought maybe it would be okay. Just wanted some opinions,thank you!

:dance2:
 
Yes, they will be fine together.
 
What kinda of spiny eels? I wouldn't mix a larger eel like tire track or fire eel with kulhis but peacock or zigzag should be alright.
 
I keep khuli loaches together with my zig-zag eel and they are fine together. I wouldn't mix any of the larger eels with khuli loaches though. Anything the eels can fit in their mouth will most likely end up in there.
 
I was planning on having zig zags or zebra spiny eels. Of course my substrate will be sandy! Thanks everyone so much for your help. I didn't think I could keep them together and now I know. Yay! The kuhlis will be full grown when they are put together.
