Hey everyone,

I have a 55 gallon tank with some tetras and 1 big angel.(3" body from top to bottom).   I want to add some more stock so I went and added a breeding pair of angels the other day and the male that I had in before is biting both the new male and female.   If hasnt seemed to slow down since yesterday(i put the pair in last night).   Will they stop fighting?   Is my only solution to buy a group of juveniles and grow them out together?
Any info appreciated!

Once settled in, angels can be quite territorial, I've had to spearate them before.

Will growing 6 juveniles togetheer work out?

Possibly, although eventually you may need to separete some out
