Hello,
My step daughter has a 20g fish tank with 2 angel fist she wants to give me her tank.

I have a 20g tank with tiger barbs 6 of them and I am about to go get her tank but adding the angel fish in my tank until I could have her tank filed up with water will they be fine until the tank is recycled and ready to add the fish....

The angel fish are big and very mean she states...
 
Both are territorial and WILL clash. The only safe way to do this is to buy a tank divider and divide your current tank, that way they cant get to each other.

EDIT: Just od that you and your step-daughter know, angels need more than 20 gallons. referably 20 each sinch they get quite big. 30 would be more suitable (Each). And 40 each will make them a lot happier.
 
yes u should add them they will be fin the barbs might attack the angels but they will only cause a scrape and the angel fish is also very meen they will kill the barbs if they get the chance but the barbs are to swift so there should be on problems trust me i own 6 fish stors and one fish farm and have kept 1 angelfish with about 6 barbs in a 25 gallon tank and it was fine

good luck
