Goldfish with gouramis?

23 15:09:43

Question
I've got two Sumatran Blue Gouramis and two Sumatran Albino Yellow Gouramies, along with two kissing gouramis and two honey gouramis. Is is safe to leave goldfish in my tank? Won't the gouramis start bullying if I do so?  

Answer
Hi Ravi;

Goldfish are better off in their own cool water (non-tropical) tank. But yes, the gouramis may start picking on them.
