While I applaud your ambitions, I really think that you need to do a lot more research before you begin to stock your aviary. I would start by researching the habits of these different species of bird in their natural habitat and especially note the distances between their nesting sites as this is where you will encounter the most aggression as they try to protect their nests and their offspring from each other.
Consider that your suggested bird mix is combining birds from wetlands with arid climate birds, birds that make new nests each year with birds that develop permanent nesting areas as well as birds that find new mates each year with birds that bond with each other and mate with only that bird for most if not all of their lives.
I think that you are trying to put too much diversity into too small of an area and this plan may be doomed from inception due to this lack of knowledge. I am still learning, mostly about parrots as that is what I have, and from what little I know and understand about the captive breeding of parrots the space that you have would be great for one or two breeding pairs, provided that you separated it with a space between the two sections so that they can't bite each other through the wire. The exception to this would be with Quaker/ Monk parakeets which build communal nests and assist each other in the rearing of their young.
