125 Gal Fowlr tank with triggers, tangs, puffers, lion fish and v-tail grouper. Looking to add a large Angel. What are the best candidate(s)

Thanks

What triggers and your total count of tangs and puffers, the 125g may already be too small for what you have. The medium and dwarf size angels are ok for a 125g, and even a 180g is borderline for most large angels. Only a few of the medium and none of the dwarfs could hang with the triggers. The majestic would be the only large angel I would try in a 125g, and that would depend what else you have in the tank. Crowded tanks brings out the aggression of already aggressive species; maybe temporary success while small, but it will not last.

I've always had success with Passer's Angelfish when housed with aggressive tanks mates. They hold their own and are pretty.
