I have a quick question for anyone who knows. I want to know if my angelfish would treat shrimp like it's a buffet. I want to start with some shrimp maybe cherry so that once I get my planted tank started I can put some in there. Thanks in advance.

I'm thinking this is going to be one of those YMMV situations. If you have a decently planted aquarium with lots of bushy plants on the bottom, I think the majority of them would be fine. IF you've got a more open layout, they'll most likely become snacks, at least one the angels get some size to them. I'm going to be putting some in my tank soon, which has 4 angels (still very small), but lots of moss and smaller plants on the bottom.
 
Thanks, I will hold off until the other tank is planted
