I'd say stay away from the golden algae eater, I had one, didn't realize it was just a color morph of the chinese algae eater, and I watched it suck the slime coat off a few fish. If possible I'd suggest exchanging it @the LFS, and get some ottos after the tanks been set up for a year or so.

23 gallons is a bit on the cramped side for an adult angelfish. Try for about 6 C. anneus (I think that's what cory you're referring to). A small school of tetras would do fine in place of the angel.

There's a variant of the species that has a neon green stripe - there's also the "orange laser" type that has an orange stripe.
