Just recently got a flame back angelfish it has been 3 days in and I see the angel chasing my 5-year-old clown fish. Is this normal? There about the same size. I thought clowns were supposed to chase the newcomer.
 
Can depend on the individual fish.

Mirror can distract fish - they see themselves and instead fight their reflection.

My angelfish is part of my Death Dealer Squad... I no longer can add any new fish without first using acclimation box on magnets, moving to ALL territories in my tank - up down, left right middle, etc... and even then recently I had a fish go after another fish unexpectedly...

I use The Shu by Octo as my favorite acclimation box, but I've got multiple until I found that one with magnets and lid.

Good luck to you.
