Thanks for the response !

The new eel has been in the aquarium for less than 24 hours, and there has already been wrestling at the very least. I woke up today to find the aquascaping completely destroyed, and the two eels stay on opposite sides of the enclosure.

I read that Snowflake Eels can be sexed very loosely by the positioning of the teeth. If they appear to be longer on the top, then it's a specimen on the male end. If they are longer on the bottom, then it's more female. I don't know if this theory holds water, but I'm hoping that they don't dismember each other before I get the chance to find out !
