Hello all,
I recently bought 23 L tank with 3 pairs of Neon Tetra, 3 pairs of guppies and 2 pairs of AngelFish. Everything went well for few hrs however after 20hrs Angel Fish killed all of the Neon Tetra and Guppies. :( Experts please suggest the best compatible fish with Angel fish. I planning to buy Swordtail fish and Cory Cat fish, because as per my research in google, Angel fish attack only smaller fish compare to them.
 
I'm afraid your tank is too small for any of those fish, including the angels; they will not live for very long if you keep them is such a small tank.

A 23l tank is suitable for only a few, small fish, or a single fish like a betta.

Do you know if your water is hard or soft?

Yes, its hard water.
 
I'm with flutter, your angels are too big for the tank, by a large amount. This is the cause of the enhanced aggression (although they're not big fans of guppies at the best of times in my experience).
 
I'll just jump in and agree that this tank is way too small for angels.

Another problem is that even if there's a bigger tank, angels are best in soft water.

I'd suggest your best move is to return all the fish you currently have. 23L and hard water... that's a very specialized tank scenario.
