Just Startin

[Ripcord]

Thinking about buying some Gourami. I was just wondering how many i could keep in a 30 gallon tank. What kinds should i start with. My other fish in the tank are listed below.

In a 30 gal. I would say 4 is a good number its usually 1" of fish per 1 gal. But I would recommend the dwarf's because the dont get as big and look just good or better than some.

You could probably fit more than 4. However the dwarf varieties are tough since some of them are badly inbred. Also they can be very agressive.

If you want to keep a larger stock check into honey gouramis they don't grow as large and don't have the same health problems.
