I have had 4 angel fish since I bought the tank. Luckily, 2 of them were males and 2 were females. That was last July. It has been six months and they have grown a lot. The unfortunate fish was however a little 'stunted' in its growth and I had always assumed that it might be its nature.
About 2-3 days ago, I noticed that one of my angels hasn't been eating regularly. I feed my fish twice a day, once in the morning before I leave for school and once in the night before I go to bed. I have been observing it since then. I thought maybe it ate the sunken flakes. Today morning, I had decided to wait until the end of the day and if its eating had not improved, I can maybe put it separately in a bucket. But when I came home, my mom said that it died. She wasn't sick or anything. She wouldn't just eat. A few hours before dying, my mom had moved it into a bucket and tried to feed her with a few flakes. It was of no use.
The poor fish:

Previously, the tank had two angel pairs. Now there is only one and there is a male without a pair. But the male in a pair right now is the dominant fish of the tank and is aggressive. It constantly taunts the other male. I don't know what to do. Should I buy another female angelfish or should I give up the male(I am trying to avoid this. I like him so much)?

The other male is pictured below. As you can see from the fins in the pic, he has already taken some hits.

Other than his fins, he still seems to be normal. He fights back and eats properly.
I would love to have some advice on this.
