I have had a double saddle butterfly in my parents 100g tank (plenium filtration, 75lbs lr,) for a couple months with a maroon clown and added a bicolor angel yesterday. this morning the butterfly's left and rear fin were torn up and his face is a pink/red color. i thought that the angel might have gone after him but saw him swin by the butterfly a bunch of times with no problems. All the thank parameters are fine, has this happened to anyone, it doesn't seem like a disease. i have kept the lights off all day except to feed and the butterfly didn't eat any suggestions?

If the butterfly was perfectly fine before the angel was added, and a day later is in this condition, then it is more likely than not due to harrassment---even if you don't see it. I suggest you remove the angel.
You have a QT?
