I raised this baby (it double in size to now maybe almost a foot) I'm wondering whether there will be problems keeping it with an adult ribbon eel. I've seen it in a lot of LPS in my area do that. Also will a dwarf fuzzy go after it?

Should be fine, I don't have 2 ribbon eels, but my ribbon eel is in my Lion's Reef, they really pay him no mind. They just get aggravated when he snatches a molly or ghostie right from under their noses.
You are a brave fellow for keeping 2 ribbon eels and a fuzzy, what do you feed them.

I've never seen it, I've kept lions and anglers with small eels and they have never looked twice at them. An angler can eat something the same size as themselves but I've never seen them even interested in something twice or more their length. The largest, longest fish I've ever seen one of my lions eat was almost, not quite 2/3 their length. I hold that nothing is impossible, so dont do it if you are concerned.
It's always best to err on the side of caution, sounds like your eel needs to grow more to be safe.
