Aggressive regal tang

After observing my 125 for a longer period of time it is quite obvious to me that it is one of my regal tangs has become the aggressor. I started with 3 and right away one jumped out of the tank and died. The 2 got along fine. In the fall I acquired a friends tank and fish which included a regal tang. After consulting a number of sources I added him to my tank. All 3 seemed to get along fine. I have been paying much closer attention to my new 120 and I did not notice this new behavior. Does anyone know anything about these tangs? Should I put this aggressive fish in another tank? He does not seem to cause injury but they are always hiding.

ok,so it's in the 125 right now? and you have a 120 tank to? if so move the tang in the 120, either that or watch to see if this tang actually annoys the other tangs, if it does move him in the 120
