I defenitly want an Angelfish, Clown Pleco and Neon-Tetra. I would like a Betta but, it would probably bite the Angelfish right? How about female Betta? If either Bettas won't work, tell me a fish that's blue like a Betta. Thanks alot.

The pleco is fine...however its a big NO NO for the neons. Tetras are prey for wild angelfish and the instinct is present in captive ones as well. So they will eat all of your tetras once they grow to their full size.
As for the bettas, it depends, I wouldn't be too worried about the betta attacking the angel if they're both grown, its more about the angels. Angels are cichlids so they are naturally aggressive and tend to attack tank mates smaller than them.
A german ram would do good with angels as its a cichlid as well(peaceful cichlid).
Rams are usually a golden color with a tinge of blue, red or pink. They're beautiful.

you still haven't said how large your tank is.
neon tetras are natural food for angelfish, once the angelfish is big enough, your tetras will disappear! cardinal tetras are a little bigger than neons and may work better, might still be considered lunch once the angel is full grown though. still need to know the size of your tank though?
you can still get attractive female bettas, just look on aquabid!! some real little stunners. i would still be concerned about putting two technically aggressive fish in one (small?) tank. it's not worth the headache! female bettas can be just as fiesty as male bettas, betta girl pms it's called hehe.

Keeping angels and bettas together is hit-and-miss, sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.
Also do not put angels with neons. Neons are the angelfish's primary food source in the wild, and are eagerly eaten by angelfish in the aquarium. If not now, just wait till the angelfish is bigger, it will happen, I guerantee it.

Beta females are not as pretty
Angelfish eat everything in the tank besides the Pleco, get a bigger one, since they will pester it a lot as well.
