I usually use 3 5 gallon bottles, fill them up and just let the sit for
24 hours, no water treatment of sorts, just give it time for the
chlorine to evaporate. Seems to work out ok.

Yea, Angels can be kinda mean, I put a new pleco catfish in a few weeks
ago, along with him came one of those little clear shimps, the little
shrimp didn't last too long in there. Only problem was the pleco was
sick or something, killed 2 of my angels before I caught it (had 4
angels). Kinda ticked me off, but not much I can really do about it
except stop buying fish from Petland :)
