Hi
keeping smaller fish like neons and glowlights with Angels is risky (natural predator/prey in the wild) but doable, especially considering the size of the tank you have mentioned.
Another problem with having the small fish is that Big and Peaceful fish will still mistake neons for food because they are so small in comparison,

Larger Gouramis like Pearls, 3-spots and moonlights are an option for medium sized species

That tank will be too small for Angels i'm afraid. They grow to somewhere in the region of 20cm height.

Assuming it's LxWxH, 18 inches tall is the standard recommendation for angels.
