ok 35 gallon tank, just changed it to a community tank and so far i got as follows:

5 zerba danios
2 red wigwags
1 dwarf gourami

i was wondering what fish would not be suitable with the ones i have so i dont make a mistake. Also how many more fish do u recommend i able to add become i am fully stocked? Also if u wanna recommend some fish id be glad to consider. :) thanx

Hey, no, your existing gourami isn't bad at all. In fact, I have no clue why you shouldn't add more labrynth fish. I have three dwarf gouramis (which are considered a schooling fish) and they love each other to death. Harlequin rasboras are beautiful, as are scissortails rasboras (yes i love these two, as you can see from my profile) are also fine with the gouramis. I would, however, stay away from any bettas, simply because the gourami can be a little aggressive to fish of similar size. how about something different, like a little african dwarf frog? Some cardinal or neon tetras would also add a lot of color to your tank and dont get all that big. I would consider getting another dwarf gourami...
