I have a 29 gallon tank. I plan to stock with mostly tetra's

Right now i have:
4 Red Eye Tetras
3 Flame Tetras
8 Neon Tetras
1 Amano Shrip


I plan to get a few more algae eaters, probably a shrimp or two, and an otto (or two). That would bring me up to 18-20 fish/shrimp.

How about an Olive Nerite Snail? IME, they're much better algae eaters than Otos. But you can still get the Otos if you want.

If you're having hair algae and BBA problems, a SAE will eat that and will fit in your tank.

I want some more neon tetra's for sure. I've been told 24-26 fish would be about good for the fish i have. However, others have told me i can go more with the neon tetras.

8 is good enough for a school, but you can get more if you want to.

How does a Algae eating shrimp shrimp/catfish contribute to the bioload compared to a "normal" fish around the same size?

Amano Shrimp have very low bioload, and Otos I'd say are about the same as a Neon Tetra.

so, i know this is general but i'm looking more for an estimate as I'll be about done with my next stocking according to some people, with others, i have more room.
