I've always like both. Anyone know if they will live peacefully together?

Some people have done it successfully, but it is generally recommended against. The betta has a tendency to consider a gourami another male betta and he will defend his territory.

I love both but gouramis are my favorite out of the two. Simply because of the fact that you can house them with more fish and other gouramis as well. But they are both beautiful fish.
