is that all in the same tank if it is it looks very over stocked

If all of those fish are in the one tank than I am sorry to say it is well over stocked and many of the fish species such as Khuli loaches, clown loach and corydoras catfish and glass catfish all like to live in good sized groups with 6 being the generally excepted minimum but more is usually better. Clown loaches also need bigger tanks than 4ft once mature they are a large robust loach.
 
I would look at only have 2 bristle noses in the tank and rehome the common sucking catfish. I am guessing that the common sucking catfish is actually Chineses Algea Eaters? If they are then they will cause problems in your tank later, because not only do they stop eating as much algea as they mature but they also get territorial and will attack, bully and kill other fish.
It depends on what type of gourami you have, either the larger breeds like opaline or Indian Snakeskin or some of the dwarf breeds like coral blue or honey. Either way gouramis generally do best in trios of one male with two females and males will fight over females.

Thanks for your advice, I will do that right away.
I'm not sure on breeds of gourami but I have an ops line, an orange one & a blue one that are all what I'd call normal sized. One dwarf which is silver/white

Are you able to tell me roughly how many/which breeds can work together?

Will start fixing things right now, Thankyou very much!

& yes I believe they are algae eaters
