Tank mates for bichirs

[Fringe727]

Hi im new to the forum so Im hoping Im posting this in the right place but im looking into getting a senegalus bichir and I want to put some tank mates with it, I would like to know if the 75 gallon tank I have is big enough to support them all and if they would even coexist.
The fish im thinking of are
A senegalus bichir
A freshwater eel
A gold severum
And a blood parrot cichlid
Any advice would be very much appreciated

Welcome aboard
A spiny eel species may be ok but cichlids could be a problem.
Cichlids will be faster to getting to food also the cichlid may harass the senegal bichir. A 75 gallon is fine for captive bred senegal.
