I just joined today in hopes of getting help.

I have a 55 gallon -semi planted tank.

started it in March when Covid hit and had it fully cycled by mid may.
Paramaters
Ammonia:0
Nitrite:0
Nitrate-5ppm to 10ppm
Weekly water changes

Up until this tank i had a 35 gallon bow front that just occupied a single angle for about 6 months as all of the other fish ended up passing.

This angle is now in the 55 gallon and has been by himself in this tank since i had it cycled in mid May.

I just went and purchased 3 longfin Cory and 2 Orange Laser Cory. I'm really wanting to go with a fully planted community tank.

My problem is the angle fish i think has grown to being used to being by himself and is being very aggressive to the Cory's.

Should i put him in a time out for a few days and see what happens or do you think i should just see if the fish store will take him and go on with my new build? I obviously don't want to get rid of him but i also don't want a single fish in a fish tank for who knows how long either.
 
You can try moving everything around and leaving the lights off. Angel's can be a but terrible. No reason he should be messing with Cory's, than again they're little tanks so they should be fine
