okay i was thinking about adding a green serverum to my tank and moving the angels to my 55 gal (when it is set up) and was wondering if my gold serverum would be aggressive towards a new one coming in to the tank. i know that they are rather peacefull but i wasn't still sure. my serverum know is about 3in. and if i did add another would they be comfortable in a 90 gal together with maybe a pair of kribs.

EDIT: SEVERUM

Yeah they will be fine together. I keep 3 of them in my 90. Just be prepared if they end up paring off and spawning. They will be very territorial if and when they do.

Severums can be aggressive toward each other especially when they were not raised together and are of different size, age and health and the tank is not that big.
I had to return submissive sev once because another one set out to kill him even though he himself is on the bottom of the pecking order.
