Is the nitrite reading 02 or 2 off the chart.
He's pale because of the bad water quality, stress can also weaken there immune system. Being pale can be stress or desease.
Water changes and increase aeration.
Also a pair of angels need 20 gallon tanks.
The shark need 40 gallon or more.

Shouldn't of bought anymore fish.
Due to adding more fish the water quality bad.

Keep doing water changes and increase aeration. Thats all you can do,.
You need to get a bigger tank fast.

Fish find it hard to breath in bad water quality.
Don't add anymore fish to that tank size.
Good Luck.
