Just put fish into new tank

Ok so I waited 4 1/2 weeks for the nitrogen cycle on my 15 gallon. And today I went and bought 3 peppered corys and 1 dwarf gourami. Is there anything I need to know specifically about these fish type?

I have plants and decor in the tank and Omega One Tropical Fish Flakes, Sinking Shrimp Pellets, Algae Rounds, Blanched Zuchinni, and Frozen Bloodworms(for my other tank). Am I missing anything in there diet?

peppered cories are one of the best cories availble for purchase as they are hardy and long lived, as well as easy to breed. The dwarf gouramis around the world have suffered a new disease that has no cure. Symptons include loss in appetite, listlessness (low activity levels), and sudden death with no external physical deformities as far as we know. About 22% of dwarf gouramis have this disease. Good Luck on your new fish.

BTW, the diet is varied and complete with both meat-based and vegetarian food for your cories and gourami. This will boost your fish's immune system and will also promote color vibrance and overall healthier pets.

Where did you get your Gourami? Hopefully, he was domestically bred and I bet yours is good.
