There are some fish that are 'disturbed'. Some are fin nippers, some are reclusive and never go near the others, some never leave the side of another, some are slime suckers and some have .
A few years ago I moved a new small 6" shusui koi from the quarantine tank to the main pond where for two months he persisted in sucking the slime coat off the much larger others. I was advised that this aberrant behavior is rare but can be lethal to other koi so he should be euthanized. Instead, I put him back in the basement quarantine with two veiltail goldies on which he never feasted. The following spring, I returned him to the pond as a test and he never did it again.
Whether you try the timeout (but he will need a male companion), the rehoming or the clove oil dispatch, do try something for the safety of your other fish. With your small pond you dont want to be inundated with fry, especially those carrying the male's agressive gene.
Good luck!
