Angel fish attacking BNP

[mariabailey]

Evening all
I’m looking for some advice with my new fish please…
I have an established tank and today added 2 small BNP and a blue eyed lemon. The problem is my Angel fish have taken a liking to them and are seeking them out and nipping. The Angels are not particularly big- say 2inch x 3inch, they haven’t touched any of my other fish but really have it in for these new ones.
Do you think they will settle down or should I consider another tank for the Angels? I don’t currently have one but happy to invest.
I’ve put some pics on so you can see my set up. Thank you.

I had my smallest angel, nip the whiskers repeatedly the other day, on my long fin albino Bushy Nose... they had been in the same tank for 6 months, & it's not bothered it since, I suspect the whiskers looked like bait... I would suspect your angel will figure out those are attached to the pleco, & leave them alone in the future... mine has

Thank you, hopefully that’s the case and they settle down.

Agreed. Angels are true opportunistic predators and may well think the bristles are worms or whatever. Also, from the images, I would think that the angels are dominant and are making sure that the newbies know who is the boss.
