29g stocking ideas

[Afarmer]

Hey, so I've just gotten into the aquarium world from a friend of mine and picked up a 29g tall, aqua clear 50, black sand, caves and plants. I'm currently doing a fishless cycling and have ideas what to stock with but since I've never done this before, I wanted to run it by people with experience. I wanted to do:
Tiger Barbs - 6
Neon tetras - 8
Panda cories - 6
Bolivian rams - 2

I know tiger barbs are nippers with neons but I've been told with a larger school of both they should get along. I'm just worried of overstocking but was told this was good. I just don't want to decrease the schools as I'd feel bad for the fish not being with its kind. Any insight is appreciated.

The tigers are dangerous. Maybe go with a different barb?

I agree with SaraB. Cherry Barbs are attractive and very peaceful and smaller than Tigers.

Pentazona or hexagon barbs look a lot like tiger barbs but aren't as aggressive. Still need to keep them in groups.

Also, Tigers are very active swimmers: I'd prefer a long tank for them over a tall. I think the cherry barbs are a great suggestion.
