mine was a bit bigger when i got him (from golds also). but once he was on pellets he was fine. used to chase my blue tang around really bad, if the blue tang would try to hide the sohal would grab him by the tail and pull him back out. at that time i was wanting to get him out of there. then all of a sudden he quit the chasing and turned into a model citizen (still the boss of the tank) but well behaved anyways. would even eat flakes out of my hand in the end.
i had to let him go anyways tho cause of a tank downgrade.

He was a bugger when smaller, he chased and nipped fins. My foxface didn't look that great as his fins got pretty nipped up. But over time it got better.
I got him from golds, and he was eating pellets, but when I got him home, he didn't. Could only get him to eat Nori. Over time I decided to not feed nori at all, basically starve him into eating the pellets. Well that did work, and I found feeding him the pellets, must of satisfied him, cause his aggression subsided.
Now, he is quite peaceful. Larger in size and still eating mostly varied types of pellets with some Nori. He does do the odd chase, but does not damage any fish or coral. So I would say he is a success!!
