Oh sorry I guess I didnt finish it, and I do not have any fish in the tank right now but I have a smaller tank with some platties and Molly's and a beta, but my question is I'm trying to find good compatible fish that I can have with angel fish, and also have a few schools of guppies or some sort of tetras I'm not sure, and I really like the angel fish but I heard they're very aggressive at some point in their lifetime, and I'm going to have planted live plants in the tank plus a freshwater sump so I'm going to have extra extra filtration so I'm going to need to add a lot of fish to keep the cycle going also feeding the plants, I want the fish tank pretty much packed with fish and plant life

I'd suggest a large school of tiger barbs and bottom dwellers, maybe a nice collection of L-breed plecos or a larger school of cories? I believe larger schools of similar fish look better than a few seperate schools, but that's just personal preference.
Finally reached 6 tanks... oh god, this addiction is getting serious. 75g mbuna tank, 65g gold severum, 55g OB peacock breeding colony, 30g(36x18) growout, 20 long Dwarf Alto's, 10g fry tank.
If I die young bury me in... An 8x2x2 with versa tops and a large sump for adequate filtration;)

I'm going to disagree with Tiger Barbs if you want an Angelfish, although I agree that larger schools look better. The cories and fancy plecs would work though. What about Diamond Tetras or Colombians? Or just a slew of smaller tetras like Rummy-Nose, Cardinals or Harlequin Rasbora?
Personally, I would go a Severum or something as a centrepiece and go with a big school of Tiger Barbs, all-male Congos, Colombians or Spotted Metynnis. Some oddball Synodontis cats and a plec or 2 would be cool.
A rainbowfish tank would also be cool.

Go with a large school of Harlequins 25-30 to fill the upper part of your tank and the same number of Rummy Nose's, Bloodfins, Cardinals or Rosy Tetra' for the middle and bottom part. Amelia has some great suggestions for your other/bigger fish.

LOL "fight to the death" doesn't really fit it, I'd say massacre.
