The issues you will have ?
Angels need tall tanks and room. They grow fairly fast and adult angels have tall fins.

Min tank ? 29g, tho I recommend 55g as they can be grumpy.

Swords are very active swimmers. Is it a 20Long ? Or regular ?

They need side to side room and the males can hit 6". Same tank recommendations as Angels for me. 29g but 55g is better.

I applaud you wanting to upgrade your fish. But if a large tank isn't in the budget, consider rethinking your stocking plan.

angels grow fast! 2male swords well 1 will be come dominant and the other will go try to find a hiding spot or stay at the top in a corner. Swords do better 1 male 3 females and if you get a dominant female she will change into a male usualy the larger of the females. then what ever male is dominate keep that one add another female and you should be set with one male and 3 females. Probably lots of babies. That's why all my swordtails are now pool raised instead of tank raised,Except for my giant green sword and jumbo blk.sword females. 1 male 8 females.
