Andrew,
It would depend very much on the size of the fish. Angels and otos can
get quite large and at that point the aquarium would be seriously
overstocked. Some say that even two fully grown angels would be enough.
I think the angels would eat the cardinals, unless they had been raised
together, and even then it would be risky. They seem to look as good to
the angels as they do to us, although in a different context.

What happened to nice happy friendly community angelfish? The Internet
lies...
Also I thought Oto's only got 2 inches long.
