I have

4x mystery snails
1 platy
2 albino Cory
4 neons
6x guppies. 2m 4f
A pirateship decoration and amazon sword plant
One of my guppies seems to have been pregnant for 3 weeks now
I'm upgrading my tank in June as a graduation gift 60g
They all eat and are very active. I only have one platy because all my other ones died when I spilled halph bottle of ph up in my tank I dropped it I'm sorry I cleaned off all gravel and decorations now everything seems good but is it really?
 
I would say yes the snails carry a big load. even if you are not you will be overwhelmed with guppies very soon. Good news is you have a 60 on the way so nothing to worry about!
 
I think you're ok. The platys and guppies are messy and add a lot to the bioload. Keep up with 50% weekly water changes and keep the tank clean (assuming ammonia, etc levels are ok, I'm assuming the tank is cycled?). WHen you upgrade, I'd add more corys and tetras to fill out their shoals/schools.
