Eel ID

What are these on aquascape. They are listed as spiny eels. They look like they could be tire tracks but the lines are all vertical. Input?

has the same exact face of my zig-zag, but pattern is different. I actually don't know much about eels though.

It's called a yellow zig zag eel, or yellow tail zig zag eel.

It is M.zebrinus. From Myanmar and Indonesia. Should each between 30-40cm if well cared for and fed well.

Ok, so it should fit well in my 75g right? Might buy some to see them, like 2 to go with my peacock.

Yes it would be fine in a 75g, but I don't know enough about them to be able to say whether they'd be okay with the peacocks.
