I've had nothing but trouble with Gourami, they are attractive but highly territorial and often become very aggresive as they fight for dominance (to the point of death), I wouldnt recommend them for a community tank - its not worth stress it could cause your other fish.
To give the best chance of success make sure there is plenty of room in your tank and plenty of places for other fish to hide, and if you put in more than 1 gourami make sure they have plenty of space to avoid each other.
