Essjay, many thanks for the advice and for the links!The name dwarf gourami is usually Trichogaster lalius. Here is a profile for this fish with photos.
The tank size needed by this fish is 60 x 30 x 30 cm which is bigger than 40 litres.Trichogaster lalius (Dwarf Gourami) — Seriously Fish

Dwarf gouramis are aggressive for their size. Two males will fight. A male can harass a female to death.
A blue gourami could be one of the colour varieties of three spot gourami, which need a much bigger tank. Three spot gouramis have been bred to make a lot of different colours, and blue is one of them.

With all the information i have learned in this thread i know now that i need a bigger tank (than the 40 liters tanks i have now) for to be able of to have happy Gourami fish there. I love so much how is the looking of the different Gourami fish species, but now i will wait for them until the moment i can have a bigger tank for this species of fishes.
Thanks !
