IMO your 29 gal tank is overstocked,i'm sure someone else can help you more,but i'm sure the mystic shark do grow a fair size possible up to 2 foot!! comet goldfish can reach 6 inches possibly more etc!!

Your 10gal is fully stocked.

Your 29gal is grossly overstocked, and not only that but you also have incompatible fish in there.
Angels - 4 is far too many for a 29gal tank, it also may not be big enough to even house a single angel depening on it's dimensions.
Dwarf Gouramis - Are fine in that tank, but shouldn't be mixed with other gouramis as they can be quite agressive.
Honey Gouramis - Are a peacful friendly fish, a good size for that tank but I wouldn't have them with dwarf gouramis.
Goldfish - They are cold water not tropical. And they grow very very large. You're looking at more like 20gal per goldfish alone. So that would be 40gal just for the goldfish alone. However having said that, they really are pondfish...most people wont be able to give them the room they need to grow.

What are mystic sharks...Do you mean Rainbow Shark or Red Tailed Black Sharks?
If so they aren't suitable in anything less than 50gal due to agression as they get older. And the 50gal would be for a single shark.

Yes, another excellent stocking analysis by agent 101. I completely agree with the summary. The 10g is fully stocked and right at the edge. The 29, sad to say, needs virtually everything re-homed except one or the other of the gourami species, technically, although it might be argued that a single or a pair (perhaps) of the angles could also remain along with one or the other of the gouramis. The goldies need to go quickly, with the sharks close behind, although perhaps with positive identification and a consult with one of our shark-knowledgeable folks, one of sharks might be able to stay, but probably even that one would have needed a 50, as said, to get its territoriality quirks worked out correctly at maturity.

29g is the problem, your 10g is fine more or less.
