want to cut down on some tanks, hopin these to will get along, both fish mellow, festae even had e female he didnt bother, gourami has had many tankmates, if it dont fit in his mouth he leaves it alone. what do you think??
 
i think that festae would become trouble after he hits the 15" mark

but if they are allready getting along, well it should be fine i would think
 
they arent together now, its just that both fish seem mellow, I dont think hell hit 15 hes ovre 3 years old and just 12in.
 
they should get along well, though it'll take awhile to hit 15", if it does i really don't see how it would change in aggresive tendencies. just because your 3 inches taller doesn't mean, your just going to go and punch people in the face on the street. when your agro your agro, when your not your not.
 
Sounds good to me
 
I'd go for it, and post pics. I love those giant gouramies
