I'm setting one up, these fish will go into the tank I buy after x-mas, hopefully a 120+. Right now I have a 2" gold saum, 3" gold severum, and a pleco. I want to know if I could do a small school of angels with them like 4-6. Or an other cichlid, not an Oscar though I'm going for color an movement. What do you guys think.

I have heard of people keeping other cichlids with angels, but have never personally tried it, so If I'm wrong somebody please correct me, but, If you do decide to go with the angels I would recommend getting the angels larger than the cichlids, and putting them in the 125 first. It also depends on the other fishes aggressiveness. Always have a back up tank at the ready if it doesn't work, good luck.
I had a silver saum with a large angel and it stressed the angel out pretty badly, so I separated them. They were around the 4" mark though so depending on your tank size, you may have better luck with a group.
