I have a tank in my living room that I want to eventually set up as an
Angelfish tank.

What's a good species of fish I can use to cycle the tank that will get
along with the angelfish when I am ready to stock the tank?

Zebra danios might fit the bill - fast enough to keep away from the angels
and not over fussy with water conditions.

Red Eye Tetra (Moenkhausia sanctaefilomenae)

I used them for my tank. They grow big enough that the Angels can't
eat them and are docile enough that they leave the Angels alone. They
are also good dither fish and keep the Angels out and about if you
have a planted tank.
