Catfish with cichlid?

[KKAY27]

I have a featherfin catfish (I think that's what it's called) that is in my community tank! He is beginning to bother my angelfish and get very large! I was wondering if I could keep him in my 65g cichlid tank? I currently have
3 Bumblebee cichlids (small)
2 blood parrot the rulers of the tank
And a few others!
The tank has about 12 large flowerpots and a few plants! I seen on Instagram were someone had there's feathefin with cichlids! He is super fast and has a attitude! I wanted to add my guppies to the community tank but he will eat them, which he has done before! None of my cichlids are small enough for him to eat

A malawi tank is a much better aquarium to house a syno cat than a community (depending on the species of syno, but in this case, it applies to a featherfin squeaker well)

Brief note, bumblebees get up to 8 inches and are highly aggressive.

One of my Bumblebees us about 6 inches right now and my blood parrot is way more aggressive than she is!

I have one around 4" and its still pretty docile for a cichlid too but the general perception is that they are highly aggressive. This can be worse when mixing African with central/south american cichlids which is usually discouraged.
