You can do any of the dwarf angel fish in there, coral beauty, flame angel, bicolor, halfblack, eibli, yellow, etc
The only angel out of the large angels I can think of for that size is the bellus angel and indian yellow tail
I personally would stick with one of the dwarfs for this size tank as 4 feet in swimming space is not really sufficient enough for any of the larger angels

Would 2 be ok, because I heard somewhere that yo can have multiple?
I didn't have luck keeping two dwarfs together in a 120 or 180. Some do

Might get away with a mated pair of dwarf angels

No, not in a standard regal angel, they grow up to 10 inches and are very active, so the turning space of 24ish inches on the sides would really be sufficient enough

I have 4 angels living together fine in a 125 gallon, with tangs, yellow tail damsels, anthias, hawkfish, 2 clowns, two wrasses, etc...but I have more than double size sump tank for the load, and loads of coral rocks with caves all over. Thought my flame fin tang might kill, as he'd chase for a day or two, but the angels were smaller and he eventually gave up harrassing them. Lemon peel and Flame angel were first, then Coral beauty and larger black velvet. I once tried to put a flame after a larger coral beauty and it did not work. Too aggressive. They need to have lots of hiding places. Others told me no more than 1, but as long as there is lots of filtration and hiding places, it can be done in a more than 100 gallon tank.
