Honey gouramis are the most docile of its species so they have no risk and they stay small too

pretty sure they're that type of fish that builds bubble nest so make sure the flow is low

What are the tank dimensions (length x width x height)?

What is the GH (general hardness), KH (carbonate hardness) and pH of your water supply?
This information can usually be obtained from your water supply company's website or by telephoning them. If they can't help you, take a glass full of tap water to the local pet shop and get them to test it for you. Write the results down (in numbers) when they do the tests. And ask them what the results are in (eg: ppm, dGH, or something else).

It was a suggestion from sgooosh

I saw that, but the conversation was about honey gourami….not Bettas. They are both labyrinth fish but that’s the only link….

EDIT: spelling of labyrinth

That is strange

You need to know the parameters of your tank. The tetras you have are fine in an acid tank but the guppies are not a great mix. Your tank is not really large enough for kissing Gouramis as they grow to around 12 inches long. Honey Gourami's are cute but to small for your set up, have a look at Pearl Gouramis.

Pearl gouramis are known to be aggressive hence not compatible and how are honey gouramis too small they are just right
