African flameback chasing the flame angel non stop

[apercele79]

Quick question, I added a medium sized flame angel yesterday morning and today a little more than 24 hrs later, the african flameangel (also medium sized) has chased the flame angel NON STOP. he hasnt taken a break. I'm hoping this is temporary but I'm starting to feel like the african flameback wont stop until he kills the flame angel.

any feedback? should i just remove one of them? I currently have an 150 gallon tank by the way

Distract the African, use a mirror.

If it hasn't stopped by tomorrow, I would remove one of them. You can try to distract the flameback, but I doubt it will resolve the problem long-term. Those little angels can be very territorial.

Pull both, wait about a month and add together. It sometimes works.

Yea it has been close to a week and the flame angel is safe only in a corner. He is literally trapped in that one specific corner. I will pull the african flameback
