Ive never seen a tank with rays and giant gouramis together, so Im assuming they would not be good tankmates, cause Im sure Im not the first who thought of the combo. But just to make sure, is it a bad idea to put a RTGG in the same tank with a ray? If so, why, would the gourami bother the ray?
 
Size and personality are the major factors in your combo. Both sizes of fish should be about the same, thou the growth rates of both vary greatly. GGs can be very agro but there are def. more mellow ones out there.
 
Ive posted here a couple times about a tank I plan on getting one day.... And yes, Im one of those MFK dreamers who cant get their tank now but wont shut up about it. Anyways, Im definetly going for some aros and some rays, probably 2 silver aros, 2 blacks, and at least 4 rays, hopefully a pair of p14's, a leo, and a marbled motoro, but not completely sure what Im going to end up with. I wanted one more type of fish in there, I was thinking Pbass, but I would love a GG or two, preferably a RTGG and a white one maybe. I know absolutely nothing about GG's though - my only exposure to them is on this site. So let me know what you think about this combo - and I know the tank would have to be huge, but I cant get it for a long while, and I can figure all that out in the serious planning stages (I am currently stuck in the pipe-dream stage).
 
im getting ready to try it with my RTGG.... i was wondering the same thing
 
i got some fish moving to do.... one of these days ill move them around.... rtgg is still in Q but eating and healthy so its when my lazy arse gets to it...
