eel with african cichlids?

[FxT4LyFx]

I have had a tire track eel, bala shark and bristlenose catfish together for 4 years in a 270L/71g tank and just last week added 4 african cichlids and they leave my other fish alone. They fight amongst each other sometimes though and my bigger Yellow Lab never leaves my smaller one alone. The eels fine though, i just hand feed him frozen bloodworms and frozen brine shrimps.

I succefully have been keeping a large 7 inch zig zag eel with my angelfish and large synodontis eupterus just introduced a whole bunch of new ciclid and he's still bold enough to fed off the top water especially freeze dried blood worms
