    I would not do that. Angels do not get along together. Also, an emperor angel should not be put into a 48gal. tank. Most large angelfish need at least a 90-100 gal. tank. From your fish list, you are already at or may even have exceeded the amount of fish you can keep safely. For those reasons I wouldn't do it.
