first cycle the tank or have access to live bacteria or seeded material frok a trusted source..angels are a terrible fish to try and cycle a tank with.
that's a pretty big tank and you have a ton of options here.
you could set up a biotope tank angels, flag cichlids , rams, cories, pleco's tetras(large species) hatchets etc.
most of these fish will live n the pH you have but you may find spawning a bit difficult.
lot of driftwood and plants.

Bala Sharks get too big--
Bala Sharks get too big--What fish besides Africans like 8.0 ph? I don't want to breed them--Been there done that. Just like to watch them. Must get along with Angels

many of the sa tropical can live at a pH 8.
even discus can live in a pH more than neutral.
it's just for breeding that the concern is high on pH.

If you get some driftwood into the tank that "should" help lower the PH.
I agree with star_rider ( rams, other apistos, tetras, corys, ect), except I would pass on the pleco.
I would try to get PH down to 7.0 (8.0 is a little high even if not breeding). Also corys like temps in the mid 70's. 82 is a little high for corys.

I have Pleco's in a tank with a ph of 8.2 and they seem to be doing fine,(have had them for two years now. I would be very interested in keeping Discus with the Angels. Would this be a possibility? What about a school of clown loaches?
