Sorry fro the x-post but I didn't relieze this section was here when I posted in Freshwater.

Is it possible to have multiple male gouramis like blue, flame, and other dwarves in the same tank or will they fight it out? I've got a 135 and most of the fish are silver. I am looking for some decent sized colorful fish to add a little flash.

in a 135 this could be done, although dwarves aren't as a aggressive as the bigger gouramis, the males can still be pretty mean to each other.

from the pick in you sig i looks like you could use some more hiding places where the less dominant males could hide away from the other males, but you could try it with how the tank is now and see how it goes, just be prepared to get some more plants and rocks if it looks like the males could use a few more hiding places.
