You should do some research on these fish to find out their needs. Google or Liveaquaria.com is a good start. Blood parrots need 50 gallons and are semi aggressive. The other needs 50 gallons as well and is aggressive. Common plecos get monstrous and don't belong in that size tank either.

...You are still planning on re-homing those fish, right?

IMO they may or may not. Depends on the personality of the cichlids but I would thin they shouldn't.

Yes the BP will eat the danios.. in time.
If you re-home the BP, JD and Pleco to the 129 when it's cycled, and leave the others in the 29 you should be ok. They shouldn't get big enough to eat them... but you'll just have to see. Every fish is different.

BP mouth will not allow them to eat/ catch the Danios, the JD on the other hand will.
