Male Betta & honey gouramis

[Dwarfs]

I have a full grown male betta and 2 nearly full grown honey gouramis . The betta lives in a 1 gallon and the gouramis live in a 20 gallon long community tank with a curviceps,a bolivian ram, 4 otocinclis, 1 badis badis, and 5 ghost shrimp and 2 cory cats . I will soon be moving to a 30 gallon tall and can only fit a few more fish in. I wanted to know this because the betta and gourami are closely related. I heard some where that the male bettas will fight male paradice fish so i was concerned as to how they would react to each other. I also need info on breeding bettas, anything helps!!!

well i wouldn't try gouramis and bettas because as far as i know alot of them fight with each other. Maybe if you gave them enough space it might be ok.

Also take note that I had 6 ghost shrimp, one with eggs 2 days ago, and my 4 gouramis thought that they were all DELICIOUS!!! I wouldn't advise mixing them either unless you have places the shrimp can hide that the Gouramis can't fit into. My shrimp stayed hidden in a fake corral reef arch way that none of the fish ever liked or paid attention to, until the shrimp arrived. Just wanted you to lesrn from my idiocies

Since when are honey's mean? I have had these fish before I posted this which was a while ago may I add, and they are the most peaceful fish I ever had. You sure he had a Honey Gourami, the little yellow orange fish that only get 2 inches long? Mine completely ignore the other fish and annoy eachother all day


P.S. the fish went into a 55, the badis badis ate the shrimp and I have mucho mas err much more fish in that tank. Now I have to get the spanish class out of my head
$rth edit: Where the heck did this pop back from? The betta died last night (see my betta has fungus) and I posted this nearly 2 months ago. I don't need this post so stop posting on it unless you have to
