Cyclopeez causes aggressiveness in fishes

I've noticed Cyclopeez increased the aggressiveness of my fishes, especially Flame Angle, by 2to3 times more than normal.
I feed my corals Cyclopeez once a week, and everytime Flame Angle ate those, he came around and picked on everything in the tank.

I think it might be the smell which triggers a feeding response making the fish more aggressive. I have not noticed my fish being more aggressive when I feed it but I do see them go crazy trying to eat it.

I think alot of fish including a flame angel become more agressive when they sense food in the water. Man when I drop in food for my Bangaii Cardinal he goes absolutly insanse! Other than that when there is no food he is the most docile fish ever.
EDIT: Ohh I also wanted to add that angels do have a tendancy to eat/nip corals and are not completly reef-safe.

well, if you say Flame Angel picks on those corals I fed them with Cyclopeez, then that's logical, cuz the smell is there.
But my Flam Angel really goes after everything, including my LTA and Lobo brain, which I didn't feed those with Cyclo.
