a few more photos you are right about the Gouramis . two males are a bit aggressive from time to time. there is plenty of plants to hide so it will be survival of the fittest

a few more photos now that my CO2 system is in place. JBL ProFlora Bio 160

small angel fish can be inserted to big neon tetra. they don't consider them as food.

38G tank. ok will put an eye on the Gouramis there are plenty of places for everyone to hide from trouble makers :)

thxs these are dwarf Gouramis that lived together in same tank in the shop. i will have to closely monitor nitrite/nitrate the following weeks..... not sure that a month waiting is enough time. i do have good quantity of ceramics in filter but ....

After 30 days of waiting , i finally added fish to my tank. Some 25 Neons, 15 Zebras, 5 Gouramis , 5 small Scalars & 4 Corydoras
