Answer
Hi Martin,
  Angelfish can be quite territorial so this is rather normal behavior for an angelfish.  Whether there is a solution depends on the size of the tank.  If possible, make sure that the tank has lots of wood or rock or plants to divide up the space of the tank.  Under those circumstances, the angelfish will tend to assume control of one section of the tank and leave the other fish to have the rest.  If the tank is one big open space, the angelfish will claim the whole thing.
