aggressive or needing a tank mate?????

I have a red tail botia, he has lately been chasing the other fish in my tank as if to be playing with them. I looked up his profile and have gotten conflicting information. One site says very aggressive another say needs to be in groups, what do I do I have angels, neons, guppies, platy, anf cory cats. please advise me.... Thanks

Yes that is my loach and I got another one because of the conflicting advice on all the profiles. They are in my 55 gal and chase each other and then go to separate sides of the tank and rest. So far they are ok together.
