I am in the process of cycling my 29 gallon fresh water community Tank, I currently have 4 zebra Danio to cycle with, in the end I would like to have 6 zebra Danio, 6 male guppies, 6 male platies, and maybe 4 Cory catfish, and down the road maybe an algae eater.

Would all these get along? How over stocked would my 29 be with these fish? I am currently running 2 30 gallon filters as I was under the impression if you over filter you can slightly over stock.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated :)
 
Danios are pretty frail fish in terms of dealing with attack.learned that the hard way. Platies will occasionally chase other fish in more of a playful than aggressive manner but will protect there progeny if they must. Don't worry about corydoras are fairly fragile but they should be fine.also remember hiding places can decrease aggression. I'd be worried about algae eaters they grow to nearly a foot. And will be aggressive to small fis
