What kinds of gouramis? Besides them, all the other fish would be ok with ABFs

yeah you could keep an abf in there......gouramis should be fine with the it as long as they arent small enough to fit in the abf's mouth

Even gouramis that are too big for the ABF to eat could get beat up, or lose an eye from an angry butterfly fish, it's best to have robust gouramis (3-spots, for example) kept with ABFs, because they can hold their ground against them

my experience with abf's and gouramis together have been fine......but i wouldnt but a smallish type gouarmi with him.....also if your getting an abf get some floating plants, it takes alot of stress of the abf and will prevent some nipping form occuring

Those gouramis would be ok, good luck curing the ich, I'd suggest turning up the water temp to about 85-90 degrees and doing extra water changes
