Is this a good community fish tank setup?

I will be getting a 30 gallon tank in a couple of weeks and am planning on putting together a freshwater,community,fish tank.I’ve done some research and some planning and I’ve decided that this is what I will put in it.

- 2 Silver Dollar Fish
- 6 Cherry Barbs
- 4 Harlequin Rasbora
- 3 Kuhli Loaches
- 5 Red Cheery Shrimp

Any opinions,suggestions,or comments will be encouraged and greatly appreciated as this will be my first community fish tank.
Also,I was a little worried about my shrimp getting eaten but I did some research and it seems like all of the fish that will be in the tank with them either don’t eat meat, or are to small to eat them.I’m still a little worried about it though.Do you think there is any chance of them getting eaten?
Thank you experienced fish owners!

What is your favorite type of freshwater shrimp and why?

The fish I have are 6 glowlight tetras, 10 neon tetras, and 2 dwarf gouramis in a 30 gallon tank. It is a well planted tank with java moss and other plants.
The shrimp I was thinking of were Amano shrimp, ghost shrimp, cherry shrimp, or bamboo shrimp. Which one do you think would do best? Any other species?
