Electric blue acara tankmates

[Tully]

I have a 75 gallon tank with an electric blue acara and three silver dollars.
Would a green severum be a good tankmate?
Also looking for suggestions for bottom dwellers.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have EBA with corydoras and bristle nose plecos and angels. With no problems.
I also had EBA with a red line gold sevrum they got along okay but the sevrum started going after the angels so I had to move it.
I never seen the sevrum and Acara have any problems with each other. But they were both pretty small at the time.
One thing to think about though, sevrum can get to be 12 inches that's a pretty big fish to have in a community type setting in a 75. You may need to have a back up plan for a larger tank .

Thanks for the input, any other ideas for a tankmate?

My BA lives with a silver aro, a red neck severum, red spotted severum, and a gold nugget pleco.

I have a male EB Acara living with 6 Severums, Bristlenose Plecos, and some Harlequin Rasbora. No issues here.

my EBA hangs with oscars and other cichlids larger than itself and seems to hold his own.

I have a EBA with a peppered cory, a leopard pleco, 2 platys and a fiddler crab. I also had several freshwater clams at one time also.
