i have a 29 gallon tank with 2 30g aquaclear hob filters plus a ton of plants, like a ton. I currently have 5 albino cories plus 5 otos, and 2 shrimp (i think, the rest are missing or something??).im not very sure if this will be overstocking. in addition to the 5 cories and 5 otos (plus 3 snails) i have right now, im thinking of either adding an additional

1-
5 rummy nose tetras
5 cardinal tetras
8 platys
5 khuli loaches

or

2-
5 rummy nose
5 cardinal
1 angel?
5 khuli loaches

I'm worried either plan i have will be over stocking. If not, if it is, then im thinking of just doing

3-
5 rummy nose
5 cardinal
5 khuli loaches

or

4-
8 platys
5 khuli loaches

Play around with Aqadvisor.com

Honestly although beautiful Angelfish really do get huge as large as a womans hand and could a mans, plus streaming fins and 29 isn't a large amount of room for them to enjoy swimming around.

I would do at least 6 minimum and if you can choose 1 instead of the 2 types, get 10-12 of Neons or RN probably -

Buy a couple more than you want - sometimes there are a couple deaths.

Check out these guys they are pretty awesome see if your water is right for them if interested. Good and bright, smaller and active fish for a smaller type tank to have a little group 6-8

As for the Kuhlis, I have seen the smaller types, and then there are Tmaiers which are monster size- like the king sized ones!!!
