The only thing I would advise in keeping the rtbs and angel together (because it can be done) is to be sure you have a cave or planted corner with nooks to keep him satisfied with an area for him to claim as his own.
Rtbs

yea i do have a cave thing in the middle bottom of the tank its not very big is like a little log wiht plants on it and it does seem to spend a lot of time in it so maybe its already set.
I'm glad to hear that your RTBS is set (honestly, I am, because they are pretty cool fish and everyone should have one at some point!)...now, the store should take back the Balas...

Yep, chances are that if he's already spending time around the log a lot, he has already chosen this as "his spot".
I agree Chil, they are neat to have..... I think of all the years I've been keeping fish, there's always been a rtbs.

Speaking of rtbs. How are they with cories, danios, and plecos? I was thinking of adding one of them to my tank.
RTBS = Red-tailed Black Shark -- already in there, but good suggestion, Scott!
I don't think that keeping them with any other bottom dwellers in a tank smaller than 30 gallons would be a good idea. I'm not even sure that it would be a good idea to keep them with more placid bottom-dwellers at all, especially if hiding spaces are not readily available.

youd think im aat school.... but im not .. im at the one place that has more computers then my hous
im at my dads work rihgt now until about 5 and ill try calling ther pet sotre when i get home. im defenetly going to this other pet store where its more about fish and birds then puppies and stuff like that... and i rmeeber when i went in they had sepret tanks for male and female for each species so you could buy exactly what you wanted. and the lady thier might actuly help instead just tryn to get her fish sold. When i return(if i can) the sharks (i think im going to return both of them just to be safe) What kind of fish would be good for a 25 gallon wihth a medium sized angel fish in it??
