A bit too much IMHO, I think one school of the neons or cherry barbs is enough. Which "algae eater(s)" are you thinking?

I agree too much load with all the fish. Id try a BN pleco as long as you plan to move it

I would stick to one schooler. You can always add later. The common pleco would be fine in your 29 as long as he is smaller than, say, 4". Otherwise you will have bioload issues. Commons are disgustingly dirty fish, almost like Oscars.

Sounds like an excuse for another tank

Someone's got to give though, there's no point overstocking just to satisfy everyone. Are your parents/grandma financially backing this endeavor? Might be a good idea to at least appease them somehow.
