If you read the other thread you have posted this question has already been answered.

No you cant mix Malawi Cichlids with Elephant nose or Gourami (also what exactly are you calling a Leopard Gourami?) Do you actually mean a Gourami or do you mean Ctenopoma Acutirostre?

SOMEONE REFERED TO THEM AS LEOPARD CLIMING PERCH IF THIS HELPS?

Then you have Ctenopoma Acutirostre. These fish are not Gourami, they are lurker predators, they are fish eaters. when they grow up you will loose any small fish to them...rehome these definately. No you cant move these with the Malawis.
