and in advance thank you all for your help its very needed
as i am new to these kind of fish (usually have cichlids i have convects but i wanted a community tank of some sort )

They should be ok, but I have a few suggetsions:

If you can, try getting more corydoras because they like being in large groups and it adds activity to the bottom.

Are you breeding those guppies?

It seems to me that your tank is or soon will be overstocked. The pink kissing gourami gets to about 8", I believe, and it probably hasn't reached that size yet.

Also, that many gouramis in a 30 gallon tank seems like a bit much. These fish can be rather territorial, especially the males, and if you have too many in one spot, even the less territorial gouramis might decide that they're cramped.

I have 3 Guppy's and 2 Gouramis and 2 Corys and they do fine together, so i dont think you would have a problem.

I just noticed that you said you have 6 dwarf gouramis, but you said one of them was a kissing gourami. I wasn't aware of the fact that a dwarf kissing gourami existed.

iv heard when the gouramis get big enogh they will go after the guppys but i guess not, corys are always good with almost all fish, there np there gl

The kissing gourami will get big, and when it gets around4-6 inches it will kost likely attemped to eat the guppies

That's 5 gouramis, not 6.
