can a blue/blue paradise gourami live in a community tank?

[Laura]

Hi
I currenty have a 29 gallon tank with a few community fish in there (3
danios, 5 neon's, 1 molly, 2 guppies, 1 sword and a candy stripe pleco) i
was wondering if i could put a blue goruami in with them as well as 2 blue
paradise gourami's. The three of them are currently in my 10 gallon, I know
that is FAR too small but i was younger when I got them and went to a store
in which the sale people didn't know anything. There used to be for of the
blue gourami's but 3 got ill and died 2 years after I got them. So anyway
with school starting back I would like to get ride of a tank if possible so
I was wondering if I could put the three of them in my 29 gallon, i know it
is fairly unlikely since they are considered semi-agressive and would more
than likely kill all my otehr fish and I do not want that. I will howver
keep them in the 10 gallon tank if that is better, even though it is still
too small for them.
thanks

I currently have 2 blue gouramis in my 29 gallon community tank.
They're sharing their home with 3 fantail goldfish, 2 redlight tetras, 5
black skirt tetras, 2 orandas and 2 plecos. It's overstocked at the
moment while I'm waiting for another tank to cycle, but they don't
bother my other fish at all. The play with each other and generally
leave everyone else alone.
Hope that helps.
