That's a very diverse community of fish, but I will be pushing the tank's capacity and you will likely have some compatibility issues.
If you are thinking that the smaller fish (cory cats, neon tetras, shrimp, even black skirt tetras) will go in another tank, then can you wait until that tank is set up and not introduce them in this tank in the first place? That would save running the risk that they'd get harassed/eaten by the angels or rams, and the stress of having to net them from the 40g.
Then you could set up the 40g with plants to suit the larger fish--angels, rams, dwarf rainbows--with line of sight breaks as a habitat feature rather than a necessary safety barrier.
