Aggressive King Angel

I'm looking for some opinions about this. I currently have a 125 gallon fowlr setup. I have a 6" Yellow Tang, a 4" Powder Blue Tang, a 4-5" King Angel, a 2" Domino Damsel, and a 3" Diamond Watchman Gobie, and some shrimp. I just added a 3" Tomato Clown yesterday and my King Angel is just about beating the crap out of him. I'm getting a little nervous. Will this settle down in a couple of days, or am I in for a blood bath?
Thanks :help:

The passer will probably not let up. They are definitely the nastiest angel and I would try to get the clown out of there. The only clown I think you could add to that set-up is a larger maroon.

I have to SERIOUSLY agree. I had a passer in my previous tank (125 g). It was a terror. You likely will not be able to add anything else to the tank. current residents should (hopefully) be OK. Sorry, but they are a beautiful fish, but don't belong in a community tank.

Yeah, the passer shows a little aggression toward the other tank mates, but it's nothing abnormal. The difference is that he's actually harrassing the clown.

Clown Trigger 1, Passer 0
The passer is definately the meanest angelfish out there, but I don't see it holding its own against a large clown trigger. Both are fish that need their own tank IMO.

Hmm, yeah, you could try that....Probably won't work though, Passers are really aggressive....Oh BTW, this thread is from 2005
