Stocking question

[DNA]

Hi all!
Can I house 4 Colomesus asellus in a 35g? (species only tank)
Or else, is Colomesus asellus and peacock spiny eels compatible?
Or may be Colomesus asellus and some khuli loaches?

I'm going to get a 35g so thinking of what fish I'm going to have. Suggestions are welcome

Welcome. No, 4 will not do well in a 35g tank IMO. You could do two with no other inhabitants. I wouldn't keep them with spiny eels or any other slow-moving creatures. Spiny eels get far too large for a 35g even all by themselves.

Most of the spiny eels are too big for a 35g but it seems Peacock spiny eel (Macrognathus aculeatus
) can be housed in a 35g.
Ok, I'll go with 2 then.
Thank you!

Peacock spiny eels get 10", too big for a 35g.
