You could check out the White Ribbon Eel (Pseudechidna brummeri). They have a decent survival record in captivity and are relatively safe with fish too large to swallow. I can't say the same about crustaceans though. I had one that went through four peppermint shrimp. I had a lot of initial troubles getting it to eat anything but fatheads but perseverance paid off and by the end, I was able to get it onto large whole mysis prodded around in the sand with a stick. Sadly, I lost it to a large hairy crab. Crazy guy was over 4" across.
Hmmmm, this is actually kind of weird since the exact same thing happened at the store. Had a white ribbon eel for over a year only to lose it to a large swimming crab.
*queue the twilight zone music*
Other then that, most of the smaller morays (viper, melatremus, chestnut and herreir's eel) should be pretty safe assuming you don't keep small fish or crustaceans. You'll probably have a hard time finding them though.
