black molly
take some neons - they are red white and blue and the are very small so you can draw from quite a few
pihranna are illigal within the us yonka donka or whatever your given name is and gold fish capture too big for your aquarium get 3 black molly and a college of cardinal tetras wich are the same as neon tetra but they procure an inch bigger and have a longer red stripe
Go near three of the smaller kinds of cory cats. Great bottom feeders and they're cute!! Research online on which one.
the fish that suck on the cup for a living are always pious...so are the blow fish they are amusing.
the blue gourami can be territorial and you should keep one mannish per tank they grow to 5 inches when evolve and prefer to be kept with aggressive fish,they should,be kept near similar size fish like ,tetras danios,rasboras,plecos,scaveng... cat fish,rainbow fish,and barb
I'm inclined to go next to Geezer on this. I have a 15 gallon emergency cistern to treat fish with. That does not grant much space and the Gourami you have are purely about going to be ok as they get hold of older. Bottom feeders, NO PLECO but cory catfish are roughly all I see. There are some small sized schooling fish similar to guppies, or neons that can work out spacially, but neons with Gourami I have a sneaking suspicion that is not a good meeting and guppies breed like no tomorrow. However you're Gourami I am sure could perform on population control by consuming the majority of fry. Based on that maybe a small college of guppies is possible. To really get a better mixture, I'd suggest a bigger tank.
Try a Siamese Fighting fish, they're colorful and own an interesting behavior.

You'll know how to keep a nice array of fish within a 15 gallon, but I'm concerned about your current fish. Gold and blue gouramis are both variant of Trichogaster trichopterus, large fish that will grow to at most minuscule 5" (Almost 6") in length and, should they get that size, will be severely taxing on your bio-filter. They should be in a container that is, at the especially least, twice the size of yours, and ideally contained by nothing smaller than 55 gallons. I would recommend returning them to your pet store and getting something smaller. Dwarf gouramis (Colisa lalia) are nice, reaching just around two inches in length. They come within several colour varieties -- neon blue, bright red, and the crude red and blue striped look. There are also Honey Gouramis (Colisa chuna), which are similar in size to the Dwarf Gourami if a bit smaller. These also come in a couple different colour variety, including a bright yellow, a more subdued ginger, and the red variety.

You could preserve pretty much any type of schooling fish with these guys. Smaller tetras are mellow and arts school nicely, and I feel 7-8 neon, glowlight or black neons would do well within there. Larger bodied tetras such as lemon, black phantom, red phantom, pristella, etc., would own to be kept in a smaller academy, 5-6 or so, but would also do very capably. I personally preserve lemon tetras, and they are an absolute excitement. =) Very active, colourful, and they hold never been fin nippers. Wonderful fish if you can find them.

Also, another thought, you could budge with a single manly paradise fish near some cherry barbs if you needed. Paradise fish are decently sized, reaching more or less 3.5 inches, are beautifully coloured, and are hardy. They can be a bit aggressive, so that's why I suggest they be kept next to the cherry barbs because they're a touch more resilient and less "stress-out-able" than the tetras are. Plus they're smaller, so you could fit around 8-9 surrounded by a 15 gallon tank. =3

So near it is. I would recommend one of the following stocking plans:

1 paradise fish
8-9 cherry barb (3 males (red/pink ones), 5-6 females (brown ones). Keeping females in near the males will ensure deep red colouration and interesting "facing off" way of life in the males, where on earth otherwise they would be rather dull.)
1 bristlenose plecostomus

//

3 honey gouramis (1 mannish, 2 females if possible)
7-8 neon/glowlight/black neon tetras
--OR 5-6 Lemon/black phantom/red phantom tetras
3 otocinclus
--OR 3 kuhli loaches

//

1 dwarf gourami (male)
7-8 neon/glowlight/black neon tetras
-- OR 5-6 Lemon/black phantom/red phantom tetras
-- OR 8-9 Cherry barbs
1 bristlenose pleco
--OR 3 otocinclus
--OR 3 kuhli loaches

You may hear that you can house rasboras or danios surrounded by that size tank, but I don't instinctively recommend them for anything shorter than 30 inches in length because they are such high-ranking energy fish and will budge literally stir crazy in a small reservoir like that.

I hope this help and that you'll consider what I said about the gold/blue gouramis. =) Best of luck!
