Hello. I've a 10 Gallon tank with a lone Honey Gourami in it. It's been there for a few months because originally I planned on stocking it with other fish, but that can't happen for a while now. So instead I have been considering moving the fish in my smaller tank over with it. I have a few silver tipped tetra and a cory catfish in the smaller tank. I'm pretty sure the cory would be fine, but would it be okay to have the silver tipped in with the Gourami? I am a little concerned because the tetras usually spend their time chasing each other around and are quiet fast. Also I have had them much longer and they have grown to nearly the size of the Gourami. The Gourami just swims around calmly all over the place and just hangs out. I didn't want to risk hurting any of my fish. In 8 months or so we're moving and tanks and fish won't be an issue at our new place, but until then, would it be ok to mix them or not?

Shouldn't be a problem. I have kept my gouramis even with serpae tetras which are known to be nippers and no problem at all.
