No damage has been done just some flared fins and charges. Do you think this may calm down or will it only get worse?
It will calm down. Feed from both ends of the tank so that they are not competing for food.

When adding a new tang it is best to add it with the lights off in a dark room. Keep the lights off for 24 hours and the room dark.

Your new tang is an ich magnet so please ensure that you are soaking dry food in garlic extract. Feed more often and only garlic soaked foods.
Good Luck
