angelfish can be aggressive (or moderately aggressive) and i haven't heard of or seen doll fish.
So they are both fresh water tropical fish? You don't just need the tank, you need lots of other equipments.
Please do your research first. There are lots of information online and in fish hobby forums. Don't just buy them....
When you need to start up a new tank, you need some starter fishes as well.

If you think a fish tank is already expensive.
I suggest you stay way from this hobby.

For my simple fresh water tank, it is easy to get around $600+

Glass tank is the most easiest to get
Have you think about heater, filter (there are a lot of different types - HOB, External, Under), lighting, substrate, water conditioners, place to put the fish tank etc etc.....

Don't ask, do your homework first.

Yeah. this is what I always see when people buy fishy from Big Als or King Ed.

They choose all different kind of fishes. They buy the tank and accessories at the same time.
How can you put fish into a new setup tank.

Fish can not survive in a newly setup environment.

Another mistake is, people buy many fish for a small tank. Remember 1 fish per 1 gallon rule.
Also, make sure your fish can live with different kinds. Some fishes are very aggressive. You can not put all different type of fishes under the same roof.

Great advice, 吳孟達!
Fishing keeping isn't just water + fish!
If you are ready for this hobby, you can check Big-Al's they have tank + light housing + canopy + filter as a package. I got my 25 gallon tank for less than $300 (4 or 5 yrs ago)
But yeah, you still need to buy a fish tank stand, the light, the heater, the thermometer, the substrate, the water test kit, the siphon... and much more.

Pls do your homework first. Don't jump into it on impulse. Yeah, a mature fish tank is real pretty. But when you first cycle a tank you have nothing but a bare tank for at least 2 weeks.

Well said well said!
I am not very good at expressing myself. But I don't want to see more fish being killed like that.
I miss my tanks.... and the sound of the filter...

作者: zuesel 時間: 2008-11-6 11:46

Yeah, I had angle fish before and it killed off lots of my other fish in the tank.

Yes.. Fish is not cheap in Vancouver tho... compare to HK...
Actually, it is nice to learn how to breed....
Coz those small fish life span is short.. You have to keep buying fish in once in a while....

Think twice before bringing the fish back home and start this hobby
