Snowflake Eel (In a 40G)?

[...]

Okay so, I like eels and especially snowflake eels, I've heard they can fit in 40 gallon tanks, is this true. I've also heard they are sort of peaceful but I am just not sure if they will eat the fish I plan to get which are 2 Ocellaris Clowns (I have a BTA at the moment but I will get 2 more because the anemone I have doesn't like clownfish much) , Algae blenny, Yellow watchman and four Blue Chromis. I will also have a porcelain crab. I will have all its care requirement's met but is it about its feedings? Thank you if you reply.
