Thanks guys! I will do some major research before I add anything else to the tank. The angels are coming TODAY! As they will be my top priority, I will really look at the other stuff before I put them in. Keep a look out for angel photos this evening!

I think you'll be fine with the serpaes. They get a really bad rap, but I've seen little in the realm of aggression toward anything but themselves. Just keep their numbers up and they should be fine.
The Neons will probably get eaten if Angels are as opportunistic as catfish or killifish. ;P You might want to hold off on adding more of them. Your Otos will be fine, your Kuhlis will be fine... your shrimp might get eaten, but you'll probably never know it. lol
I'd hold off on the Roseline sharks. There are other fish that look similar which might work.

I can only go by my experience. Based on the last year and a half or so that I have had adult mated angels and [around 4"] Roselines together in my 90g at 76/77F.
I would say this: I have had no issues. [When the angels are spawning they DO commandeer half the tank from everyone and the Roselines are no exception.]
Otherwise They ignore each other completely and there is no territoriality, Both use the entire tank. Roselines [My dozen anyway] are not 'very fast very crazy swimmers' with the possible exception of feeding time where they all head for the one front corner where the pellets fall out of the current
That is my experience, Your experience with them may be different.

Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part.
Why pretend there are no stupid questions? Actually, There are many stupid questions: "Should I drink this bleach?" Is just one example.
Having said that, Just because it's a stupid question doesn't mean that it shouldn't be asked. It's better to know.
A warm beer is better than a cold beer. Because nothing is better than a cold beer, and a warm beer is better than nothing.

+1 to Kevin as long as you keep your serpaes in a bigger school, they should be fine.
Keep researching your sharks/barbs until you get a answer, (the Pm I sent you might help) your realy happy with. There are several larger Rasboras that school like the Denisons but nor quite as manic.

Looking at your stock again, it looks like the Roselines would make you overstocked, given what else you want to do. Try aqadvisor.com to give you an idea of stocking. Not everything is perfect with them, but it gets you heading in the right direction.
