2 BN Plecos - 12"?
6 Cherry Barbs- 12"?
3 Guppies - 6"?
6 Neon Tetra - 9"?

29 Gallon Tank
 
Sounds fine to me, although personally i would have at least 2-3females per male guppy, preferably 3females. Is this is a new tank set up and if so, have you started to cycle it yet? Are these fish all that are going to inhabit the tank? With Bn plecos, personally i would just have the one.
 
I agree with Tokis about only the one bristlenose, unless possibly two females. Two males will fight, and a male/female pair- well, you'll have baby bristlies coming out of your ears. Also, there won't be enough space for her to escape his attentions.

Also agree about the guppies, though I personally would keep a same-sex group, saves a lot of hassle. Either a big male group- you could fit in 6-8 easily, or a smaller group of 3-4 females (less showy but nicer IMO). I would use the spare inches from the bristlenose to enlarge the school of neons to 8-10.
 
Yes, thing is im swapping my platy fry with someone who wants to sell me two because she doesnt want one to travel on its own and they are only babies.....

Edit: I was planning to jst kep 3 male guppies
