I just thought I'd would ask if I'm overstocking or not

Current stock

1 angelfish
2 pearl gourami
1 gbr
2 blind cave fish
6 black widow tetra
5 neon tetra
3 Julii Cory (will be adding 3 more)
2 guppies
 
What I would do...

Take out the blind cave tetras, they need a bigger school and by adding a bigger school your at risk of overstocking.
Take out the angel fish, it will probably get aggressive then it's older and (I think) this size tank may be too small for one.
Make it 3 pearls, 1 male and 2 females.
1 gbr, should be fine though would depend on your tap water pH.
Up the number of black widows, they can sometimes be nippy and increasing the number can reduce it.
Up the number of neons, the minimum is 6 and the more the better.
More julii, they will be happier in a bigger shoal.
Guppies should be fine, though make sure they are all the same sex.

They are just suggestions and its up to you if you follow them, also, if I've made a mistake then feel free to correct me. :)
 
Angel will eat neon. not a queston if but when.
+1 Blondie has good suggestions
