I've got a 29 gallon tank with a fluval 3 plus internal filter. I currently have 6 harlequin rasbora, 8 black neon tetra, 2 rams and 3 corys (Sold as Julli). I was thinking of getting some more corys, do i have room?
 
Yes you could probably fit in a few more corys, but if you go by traditional rules, your tank is already slightly over stocked. Im over stocked too, but mine is only a 16gal with a fluval 3, sponge filter and a ug filter.
Its 100% ok to 'over stock' a little especially with very small fish like neons, but if you plan on doing so you should probably up the biological filtration.
Test your water and if the stats are perfectly fine and you have very little nitrate, then go ahead.
But if you think a little more nitrate would bring it to unsafe levels, then reconsider.
In the end it really depends on if the fish are healthy or not :) .
