For a 30g ya could easily do 5-7. That would bring ya upto about the same bioload as a fully grown BNP.
Which fish are easier to keep: firemouth cichlids or convict cichlids?(Also please give tips lol)

You could atleast get a decent array of colors and patterns from just 6. Lol that and then ya would be able to name each one since they'd all looks different. Granted ya could always go the mono-color/pattern route as well if ya just really like a certain kind.
I wouldn't focus on chasing a specific PH range. I'd just focus one keeping the PH stable instead. It'll save ya allot of $, frustration and headaches down the road. I would just recommend drip acclimating the fish for half an hour before adding to the tank. This allows them to get used to the tank temp as well as the tank parameters without just being thrown straight into it.
Ok, I'll just try to keep everything stable, my tank is cycling rn and last time I checked the ph was about 7.4.
I keep all my tanks at 75° and never any issues. This pair breed 10 times over a year in that 75° water.
Sounds like a good range to be at. HRP if I'm remembering correctly come from soft water while Sword tails I believe live in both soft and hard water.
