Adding Another Angel?

Hi, As always, love the site. I have another Centropyge compatibility question. I have a 90g reef tank that has an adult coral beauty living in it. He/she has been in there for about 2 years. He behaves himself and got along well with my Potter’s Angel until my Purple Tang disemboweled the Potter’s. The two angels had lived together for about 10 months. From what I understand I was lucky that the Potter’s and Coral Beauty didn’t fight to the death the day the Potter’s went in. ( I witnessed the fight with the Purple Tang; that’s how I know it wasn’t the Coral Beauty ) That was 5 months ago and I am considering added another dwarf angel to the tank. Some of the latest data I have read suggest putting in a member of the same species, they may fight a bit but then one will turn into the opposite gender and things will mellow out. Any opinion on this?

Hello all, Your thoughts on the following would be appreciated: I have a 180 FOWLR with a single angel at this time, a 3″ Rock Beauty, which is well established for about 2 years. I would like to add a 4″ subadult Annularis; other tankmates are two 9″ Tangs, 3″ butterflies and a half dozen damsels. I had a 12” French in the system which has since been moved, and there were no issues, but I am concerned that the RB and annularis might be too close in size. Thoughts? Thanks.
