the purple is not going to be happy.. i would rearange some rock work to disturb the purples territory and add the powder blue after lights out..how big is the purple and pwd blue?
my purple and powder blue fought some the 1st day but i had the pwd blue 1st and i added 3 fish at the time i introduced the purple so the agression was spread out..after the 1st day the pwd blue and purple got along prety good

If he is healthy then yes.
However, this may be the last fish you will ever be able to add.
Once established, no new introductions will be left unmolested.
Good luck

ditto.. but you just might be able to introduce certain fishes after the powder blue. PBT should be last fish added for safest results.
