Snowflake Eel Only Tank

Im thinking of setting up a tank for a snowflake eel only and corals maybe a couple of other fish. How are these in an aquarium?
Do they live very long or have short life span?
What sort of water will be needed?

Any help will be appreciated

I love snowflakes. They are great aqurium inhabitants, however you may not see it as often as you would like. Most of the day youwill just see his head pokin out of a hole. Feeding time is fun though, I feed mine with a turkey bastor. He wraps himself around it an attacks the hole. Anyways snowflakes can live up to 20 yrs in captivity. I would'nt go any less than 75g. Snowflakes can live in full salt, brackish, or fresh.
