Are the gouramis male by any chance? And what type of gouramis are they?

For more than 1 gourami the females must outnumber the males, two males with no females will be fighting over territory.

Also kuhli loaches should be kept in groups, some recommend 10! Their bioload is small so will not effect your stocking too significantly.

dwarf guarmys and the bloke in the pet shop said they were both female and they have been fine for a while aswel and getting another 4 khuli loaches tomorrow

A picture of your gouramis would be a help - just in case the "bloke" in the LFS got it wrong!!!!

I agree. Males and females are quite distinctive so a photo will show right away.
