This is the tank I found on the side of the road. Going to put 2 pearl gouramis, a male gourami, a group of corys, and then thinking a school of something small that will get along with the gouramis. I’m open to ideas and suggestions.

Honestly haven't checked them yet, only added water two days ago and plants today. Ran the filter on my current cycled 10g for a couple of days first and added water from that tank as well. No fish are being added just yet
 
GH, pH and temperature are very important when choosing/ recommending fish.
 
When you are ready to add fish, quickly cycle a new tank by adding 1/3 - 1/2 of the filter media from your established tank and some substrate. Using old water has no benefits.
 
Harlequin raspbora may be suitable. Raspbora are sedate enough and these may be big enough to deter the gourami from snacking.
 
It now has 5 panda barbs and 7 corys. So far everyone is getting along well.

They seem to like to be able to kind of play through the "forest" as well. I'm hoping as the barbs settle in though they will move up a bit in the tank, right now they are sitting on the bottom with the corys.

I made a forest using anacharis in my sunken forest theme tank for the same reason -to give the fish something interesting to swim around and through, My ember tetra spend all day in there. If you want a look at it, it is in the TOTM thread.
 
What a find! I get jealous when I hear of people finding stuff like a tank abandoned lmfao.
What substrate is it your using? Very aesthetically appealing. I always use black sand but looking at this I'm considering doing something different when I get the 75 up and running.
