They love lots of places to hide and some plants which are soft not scratchy (more of a concern if plastic) hanging near the top of the tank.

I always leave a couple of different plants, and moss strands now that I have some, loose near the top, opposite side from the discharge flow, in the most still area of the tank. All of mine love resting and sleeping in the crook of the plant stems. Also they seem to like to sit on the Banana Plant leaves.

A betta and a gourami might some day become a problem. DG can be mean, and have been known to kill bettas (or basically harass them to death) by claiming large potions of a tank and not letting the bettas come to the surface to breath.

Make sure you keep an eye on them to make sure this doesn't happen.

I will. Ty. They like to make bubbles both the Betta and the DG. The Betta wen ever I come to the tank he swims up and down in front the he'll make a few bubbles. He makes like 8 bubble it's so cool. And the DG makes bubbles under leafs of the real plants. it's so neat.
