She is currently acclimating to the QT tank. I will get pictures of her and post them today.
Pablo (the Clown trigger) is darting at the bad as it is floating...I am hoping this little guy stays in check.

Nice fish indeed.
If you want to play it safe, add the queen to a plastic container with holes in it for water to go through.
Place him behind a rock or two.
The aggressive guys will try to mess with the jar for a bit and then wear down.
Once they do, I have found the new guy can swim mostly hassle free.
You can always do it the other way also.
Place the aggressor in the container for a day or so.
Good luck.
Hope all works out with him.
They are truly beautiful.

Pablo?....What happened to "Krusty"?
Where did you get the Queen? LFS? or internet?

I just put her in with the clown and he nipped at her for a few minutes and then all of a sudden they were buds. They are now following each other around the tank.
I like that I idea though Angel. If I find this to be an issue later, I will try that method

HAHAHA! Well, my wife decided that Krusty wasnt as funny as I did, so with the fact that he was nipping at the bag with the angel in it, I decided to call him Pablo Escobar (aka. Bad ass mofo).
I got her online from SWF.com!! This is my third queen and we shall see if she makes it through the 6 week QT process.

He is brand new too (had him for 2 weeks)...I decided that I wanted 2 new fish in the 180 and needed to wait till I made the ultimate decision.
I was going to have a clown and a blueline trigger but then decided after doing some research that the blueline was going to be way too big.
The clown is in good health and will remain in the QT with the queen for 6 weeks.

Ok I got some crude pics of Belle III. Here is a sequence.
First 3 are of her in acclimation and then just after placing in the QT tank. Notice the clown charging the bag in the second pic.

She looks awesome. I have to admit, though, that with your impressive assortment of angels, you avoided my 2 favorites... majestic and blueface. While I assume that you're finished adding angels, did you ever consider either of these?
