I have the same tank as you - I have one angel but really the height of the tank is pushing it in terms of suitability (they can get to 10 inches tall), hence why I have just purchased a tank that is two foot high.

So, you could have ONE in there, but i's not ideal.

I would look to increas the numbes of our tetra first - basically all tetras should be in groups of 6+ at the bare minimum as they schola in vast numbers in the wild, and can suffer if not kept with many of their own species.

I have 5 black widows & 5 redfin teras 5 male guppies. I have always wanted an angel fish or even a betta male as they are beautiful.

I don't know about angels but I wouldn't keep a betta with those tetras. Too much risk of nipping for my liking. Oh and of course bettas with guppies are usually considered a complete no-no.

Where do you live?

Glo-fish are genetically modified and can be illegal to keep in some countries

Yea you wont be able to legally acquire them. I also live in the UK, thought they were quirky and interesting so I have done a bit of research. Seems like a few might have popped up, but they are not legal to own/sell/import (not sure which step(s) are illegal)

What about a Bolivian ram?
