If i remember right you have a 75g right? I would get rid of one or both of your sun cats. With the sun cats and the polys the bottom is going to be pretty crowded and I like polys so I vote for the polys to stay. :D

I have plenty of angels 30+ adults and sub adults, countless juveniles and fry. I never really see true schooling behavior. They just go about and do their own thing. The adults are just territorial and like to chase each other if they get to close.

you may have to many angelfish in the tank, so they feel no need to school/shoal for protection. or it may be there breeding.

ive seen a few video where they shoal or atleast congregate.

Well after breeding them for 5+ years and having a lot of different combinations. Even the few fry I keep from each spawn for their specific traits do fine. Sometimes only being 1-4 in a 10g tank. They're not skittish or notice anything different in their behavior. Just my experience.
