rED O Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 (edited) lots what were you thinking of? most community fish. They are mostly peaceful and can be kept with lots of fish. how big is your tank? Edited March 15, 2009 by rED O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bottomdweller_fan Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 That will depend on the type of gourami and the size of the tank. What kind of gouramis do you have and what size tank are they in? Some of the gouramis like the snakeskin, blues and golds can be quite aggressive at least with each other and if the community fish are small enough to fit in the gouramis' mouths, those fish are likely to become food. I keep blue, gold, opaline and combtail gouramis in a 75 gallon with a bichir and leopard leaf fish. The gouramis range in size from 4" to 5". Good luck!

bottomdweller_fan Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 I have 3 blues, 2 golds, 1 opaline, 2 combtails, 2 wild leopard leaf fish, the ornate bichir, and a spotted raphael catfish. They all get along quite well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishclubgirl Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 I had two larger males, three spot and blue who were fine with other fish unless they could eat them. They did however bully and kill any smaller gouramies I put with them. Three Spot passed away a couple of months ago and was over 10 years old. Still miss the guy!!
