I think I am going to take him back.
My SA/CA tank is very much a work in progress. I have put together a variety of "calmer" species that may, or may not work.
Some may change as they get older. But if a fish is too aggressive now, it could possibly only get worse.

I recently added a 4" gold severum to my 125 which has (4) 3" firemouths, one of the firemouth was picking at the severum, I just turned off the lights, thus calmed eveyone down. There was no more aggression towards the severum within a couple days.
