At the lfs and seriously adding a blue ring angelfish .

current livestock consists of
Yellow tang
Sailfin tang
Foxface
Pink tail trigger
Orange shoulder tang
Juv emperor angelfish
And 2 a hole clownfish

when I added the sailfin the yellow tang and emperor were the aggressive fish
What are the chances he will settle ?

My experience from many years ago is that the adult blue rings are pretty strong. Yours is smaller, but I would think you could mix him with a juvenile emperor. You may need to do some acclimation techniques and be able to separate them if necessary.

Know that they get huge
