My lfs has had a juvenile Imperator about a month and a half now, ~4-5". I would like to add him to my tank, the only fish that my have a problem with it is my already established 7 inch orange shoulder.

What i plan on doing is blocking off one part of the tank and introduced the angel to that side, and keep the orange shoulder on the other?

think this will work?
 
Should, is the orange shoulder aggressive? I don't see too much of a problem with an angel and a tang, especially in a 210g. You never know though until you try. Let us know how it goes.
 
that seems a little over kill in a tank that size....sure your tang might chase him around a little and give him a few whacks here and there but it wont take long for the angel to get established and then he should be fine with any tangs regardless fo size.....especially if he is 4-5" liek you said and if he has been at your LFS for awhile then he is porb eating and everything and doing well.....so i see no probs in a tank that size....as long as you have lots of LR for them to hide adn claim eachothers territory
