How mature is your Emperor Angel? Unless it’s a juvenile, you might have a better chance of adding a Clown Trigger.

My iPhone hates your videos. Lol.

For comparison purposes, the other day I decided to transfer this. H. Singularis (Banner fish) into the 150-gallon tank that houses my Emperor. The Singularis is large— about the size of my entire hand, fingers outstretched. The Emperor started kicking him around and after 2 days I had to end the “experiment.” Based on the Asfur’s body type, I would think the same could happen.

Yup I had the same experience I think you answered my other thread I wanted to give the emperor a challenger so that the aggression gets distributed ...

Can’t recall if I posted this on that other thread, but no problems here with this Clown Trigger and my Emperor in this 150. (Minimal aquascaping.)

Your photo came through; maybe a similar sized Purple Tang? Or since you have a 220, a French Angel? (They can definitely hold their own; I have one in my other tank, and he’s the Boss.)
