Adding small female mandarin to large male

[Stephers]

I originally got a pair of Biota mandarins, but one was unfortunately mis-sexed and both ended up being males, so I only kept one. This was 6 years ago, so he's obviously a big boy now. I was thinking about adding a female from Biota, but those fish come in teeny tiny. Do y'all think the male will harass it, being such a size difference? It's a 75g tank. I've seen where the females can attack small males, but I haven't found much about the other way around. Thanks.

Females generally prefer males that are much larger than themselves, so I can’t see it being a problem personally. If she’s larger than 1.5-2” I especially wouldn’t worry
