Gouramis, Angelfish, Rainbow Shark And Rams?

[FishyFriend101]

Hi,
I currently have a 45 gallon tank with one angelfish, a rubberlip pleco, a rainbow shark, 4 rasboras, 3 pristella tetras and a von rio flame tetra. I am planning on getting 1-2 more flame tetras and a group of cory cats for sure. I was also hoping to get a german blue ram and 1-2 opaline or gold gouramis and i just want to make sure this would work in my tank. I have had a few rams in this tank before so mostly im worried about the gouramis.
Thanks for the help.

That seems like a lot of fish for that tank

4 rasboras,

Having kept rasboras I can tell you that they need to be kept in larger numbers,  In my opinion 10 should be the minimum. They really are happier in numbers.
 

 
rubberlip pleco

These grow to about 7 inches long and about 50 gallon tank is required. They can also be aggressive when mature I hear..
 

 
a rainbow shark

These grow to about 6 inches long and about 50 gallon tank is required.
 

 
3 pristella tetras and a von rio flame tetra

These also like to be kept in numbers.
 
 
You also have to take things like water temp into the equation, some of these fish prefer cooler water while others warmer.
 
A Rainbow shark an Angel and Gouramis In my opinion I doubt it will work.

To be frank, I'm thinking your best move now would be to get a second tank, because your current tank won't even be close to big enough for all the fish you want.
Also, among your current stocking list, the rubberlip plec and especially the shark will eventually get too aggressive for their tankmates.
 
Also, if you are wanting to add a largish gourami to the tank, I would strongly suggest a pearl gourami, an opaline or a Gold would most likely bully the angel to death.

agreeing with all Nick had to say. Rasbora's and Tetra's are shoaling species and so need to be in large groups. I also agree that the shark/angel/gourami mix is a recipe for disater. The sharks can also get really big and need a very large tank eventually
