Cool i know what rams are but i will have to do some further research on them and decide from there.
Are cichlids and gourami compatible?

If I were you first I'd decide whether I wanted to keep the Dwarves and the Honey or the two larger Gouramis! An Opaline is just a manmade color morph of your Blue Gourami, and that species is much more aggressive than the smaller ones. And they get about 6" long. You might get away with it because of the size of the tank but it's really not a good combo. If you wanted to keep the larger guys then Parrots are good choice, as are Severums, Green Terrors, Geophagus types. If you want to leep the smaller Gouramis then Apistos, Rams, Tanganyikan Shell Dwellers, Firemouths, Rainbow Cichclids, and the more peaceful Convicts like Cryptoheros cutter, C. nanoluteus, or Honduran Red Points.
So i think i'm going to stick with the smaller gouramis and posibbly get some apistos and rams. I really enjoy their coloration. What do you think?
i have a lot small fish in there right now. 7 congo tetras, 2 Apistos, 1 honey gourami, and 1 flamingo gourami, 4 emperor tetras, and 1 opaline gourami. The big guys, (who are still small), are 1 hi fin pleco, 1 raphael cat, and the most destructive Blood Parrot ever.
