Larger tank suggestions?

Hello,
I currently have a fluval 15 gallon (photo included). I would like to purchase a larger tank so I can have some more fish. I’m pretty sure I have too many in my tank already and my cherub angel is getting a little territorial.

I’d like something around 40 gallons or less.
I really like the design of the fluval because everything gets hidden in the back and it has a lid.

I was thinking about the fluval 32 gallon but it’s pretty expensive.

Wondering if anyone has suggestions on a tank that would work?

Even though the Cherub Angelfish is one of the smaller dwarf angelfish you still need closer to 55 gallons to allow them space to swim. I would hazard an educated guess that a big reason the fish is getting territorial is due to being in too small of a tank.

I looked at trying to get a dwarf angelfish in my 35 cube and couldn't find any that would realistically work on that small of a tank.

I was supposed to get a friends larger tank, and only have the cherub in this tank for a few days, but that fell through.
I might rehome the cherub and just call it good for now.

That makes more sense. If you're looking at a 40'ish gallon tank I believe the Cherub's minimum tank size is 55 gallons. I know 55 gallons is 4 feet long vs 40's is only 3 feet long so not much bigger!
