I agree, I would get the Tetras where you want them number-wise, before moving the Angels over. I know you want them to have their space, but by them already being adult size, there is a chance they'd eat small tetras. I think if the tetras are in first, there would be a better chance of them not getting eaten by angels. If you could wait a month before moving the angels over, that would give the tetras some time to grow (though a month wouldn't provide a ton of growth, of course).
Now that I look over your stocking plan for the 55g again, I think it may be better to have Swordtails and not the Guppies. I can see the Angels harrassing the Guppies since they are small and stay small. Swordtails get a nice size to where they'd have a chance against the Angels.
FYI, I've heard bad experiences of people ordering from azgardens.com.....but haven't ordered from them myself (because of that). Their shipping prices are apparently outrageous and their packaging isn't good. Just thought I'd pass that along. I understand the reasoning of wanting to order from only one place though.
