Your Fire Eel will need about 125 gallon, and will get to be almost 40".

Royal Knifefish and Zebra Shovelnose both will go fine with it, and will also need a tank no smaller then 125 gallon.

so you dont think a 240litre tank will be big enough for my eel

240 litre is about 63 gallons. You need something twice as big.
