Buffei Catfish with Gourami.

[Pile_O_Rocks]

I’m planning a Blackwater tank and both these fish come from different places but both come from soft, acidic and Blackwater environments. The Buffei are relatively active fish and I was just wondering whether they would do well will the likes of a Thick Lipped Gourami or two as I know Gourami are slow moving fish.

Can't see much problem with the choice. If the usual tank mates are small peaceful barbs, danios, loaches, tetras, then I can't see why not thick lipped gourami. Just remember that the min number of Buffei ought to be 6 and to make them feel more secure, more is better.
