Eel in a SA Cichlid Tank

[tehbatmaan]

Are there any eels that would go fine in a SA Cichlid tank? I've seen quite a few in my LFS and would love to get one because I love the way they look.

I have a zig zag with my CA/SA cichlids, they don't bug him whatsoever.

I have a black spotted with my BP's and he does fine.. as long as you have a good hiding spot.. something that at least fits the lengh of his body...

we've kept spiny eels with SA cichlids with some success, mostly with more peaceful SA types like geos and acaras

Aggression and tank size can make a big difference when mixing spineys with cichlids.

Thanks everyone for the replies. I'm going to wait a lil before I try it. The eel will have plenty of hiding spots but just in case I'm going to wait until I get another tank set up just in case there are any issues.
