Would these all fit and be compatible?
Here is what I have now in my 29 US:

-5 lemon tetras
-5 harlequin rasboras
-2 platies
-5 kuhlii loaches
-1 emerald corydora

Could I put in 3 or 4 or 5 rosy barbs? I heard they can be nippy at times especially around breeding, would this problem be reduced if I only kept females or only males?
 
Rather that adding the barbs, you really need to up the quantity of the corys as they need to be kept in groups of at least 3. Rosy barbs also grow too large (at 5 to 6 inches) for a 29 gallon tank and prefer cooler water than most tropicals.
