Gourami specis tank

[taigarazz]

Anyone have any experience or thoughts on a gourami species tank? I am setting up a 40g and plan to have pairs of various small gourami -dwarf blue, honey sunset, flame, paradise with 3 corys and a pleco. It is heavily planted, with wood for many caves.

i would not go with the paradise gouramis but the rest sound fine, the paradise ones are extremly agressive to their own kind and will attack them, i loved mine he was a gorgeous fish but i found out the hard way they are super sensative to tempature swings, i did a water change and realized i was putting in all cold water by accident and he died about 20 mins after.

Sorry to hear about your paradise fish! They are so wonderful.

I've seen them live together peacefully, but I would still be very careful about it. Labyrinth fish are very intelligent and thus all have drastically different personalities.
