Big fish with small fish?

[GiveMeABMW]

Was wondering if it's okay to buy a small (.5"+/-) black moor to put in with my
oranda (4") and fantail (3"). Would the other two push it around and not let it
get to the food or not?

Oh, and they're in a 30 gallon tank.

Definitely go for a bigger one (one of a similiar size). Also re-arrange
your tank, it will help stop the current fish becoming too terratorial.
