I have four angels in my 55 gallon tank (planted), and they are each about 4 inches long from tip of snout to tail. They seemed to be getting a long great, but, one is being isolated and picked on by the others. He is the second biggest and is receiving the bulk of the bullying from one of the smaller ones. But whenever the smaller one goes in for a chase, the biggest one and the final angel simply move in to see what's going on. They other two do not participate in the quarreling. Just today I saw the second largest fight back, but I still want to ease the aggression. What can I do to limit the amount of aggression?

You have two options,buy some more angels to share out the agro,or remove one of the others,bear in mind though that they are cichlids and one will always be dominant.It sounds to me like breeding behaviour.

I took the bully out for a few days and then as Ray has said changed around the tank decor. Seemed to sort out the bullying in my case
