how many corys can i put into my 35 gallon tank which is only 3/4 filled with water...because i'm experimenting on growing anubias plants emersed.

weekly water change will be performed.
i already have 8 albinos , 4 pandas and 4 other corys...
i'm planning to get 8 more... will they be overcrowded?

also planning to get some sterbais...
can 32 corys be put into my tank?

In my view, even if the tank is full 32 adult Corys is too many. You are ony going to keep the tank 3/4 full which is about 25 gallons. The 16 Corys you have now are probably enough. If you add 6 more for a total of 22 make sure you do plenty of water changes.

I agree, your tank is fully stocked as it is. Sixteen cories is plenty, and albino cories are one of the larger types, too. The ones you already have will be fine.:)
