Is it safe to plave a powder blue gourami fish with a tetra fish?

Answer by  navywriter (790)

Yes, it is safe to put gourami fish and tetra fish together as both are considered community tank fish. Both also eat similar types of food and can survive in the same type of tank.

Gouramis of all varieties are very agressive and will definitely not get along with the tetras in your tank. Exceptions happen but are rare.

I use to have orange gouramis, as well as tetra in the same 20 gallon tank, and they got long fine.

In essence, yes it is safe. However, before you purchase the gourami, you should consider getting your tetra some company of his own species first. Tetra's are a schooling fish, and require at least six in the group to live a stress-free life. Of course, how many your tank can support will depend on it's size.
