i was wondering if 6 neon tetras, 6 guppies, 1 angel fish, a sucker fish, and 3 coolie loaches would be good for a 30 gallon tank??????? is that too much or can i put more?????
 
That is quite a lot of fish. I personally don't like Angels in a 30 gallon and when you say sucker fish, do you mean a Pleco? If so, avoid the common pleco as he will outgrow a 30 gallon.
 
I think that sounds like a good amount of fish, but like Harlock mentioned make sure the "sucker" is not a type of pleco that will outgrow a 30 gallon. To be sure it doesn't, get a bristlenose pleco as those only grow to 6 inches or a little more. I think one angel in a 30 gallon is okay, but not highly recommended, especially as neons are going to be kept with the angel, and the angel might eat the neons.
