what type of eel is this? I was told it's a peacock

Think it's a macrognathus circumcinctus. The other name is half banded spiny eel or zig zag eel.

There is one member that has mixed spiny eels cohabiting without any issues. Haven't noticed him on the forum lately.

I used to have 2x 6-7" peacocks with a 12" tire track without a problem

Are tire track eels hard to get?

What about Fire eels? Do they get along with other eels?
