Stocking Ideas

[Mickfender]

Hi looking for any advice on my latest stocking plan, been doing a bit of research while waiting for my tank to cycle. It looks like its doing ok, on day 19 and ammonia is dropping to 0 daily . I think im in nitrite spike as its been off the scale for a few days . Anyway my stocking plan is, 6 x Julii Cory, 10 x Black Phantom Tetra, 3 x Dwarf Gourami {1 male 2 females}, 4 x Platy {1 male 3 females}, 1 x Clown Pleco. My tank is a fluval roma 125, with a tetratec ex700 filter, was planning on having quite a few plants in there nothing at moment. My substrate is sand.Also would i be able to have shrimp in the tank with the fish im thinking of at moment. Gratefull for any comments or ideas on this. Thanks Mick.

Any thoughts on my stocking ?

looks good to me shrimp should be okay but gourami and plecs might go after babies.
