Compatible Fish Mates?

Ok I have seen that people suggest tough fish to be in with Rams, like Barbs and Angel fish...

But what else could go in with them?

I currently have about 10+ guppies *including babies* 2? zebra danios, 5corries.

No problems at all...

But I'm hoping to find a home for all the guppies... practically giving them away for free, and will be hoping to replace them for something else.

Unless I'm reading this chart wrong or they dont come under new world cichlids the only yes is with plecos and everything else is either caution needed or no?

To my knowledge the fish in your tank will be pretty good tank mates.

I'm looking to move the guppies out *give them away* for either a pair of angels or a trio, or maybe another pair of GBRS?

any thoughts?

A pair of angels would be fine, better to get them as a pair so as not to have them fighting, but then if they spawn they are likely to get aggressive towards the other fish.
Another pair of GBR's wont be a very good idea unless you have lots of caves as the males will fight. Check out their profile on fishlore.
Rams should get on with most fish that have peaceful nature.

I have enough space to put more hides in... I.e another plant pot and a few little hides.

I was looking for something relatively big compared to the other fish in my tank, as the male GBR is the biggest fish I have I'd think at the moment.

I did see some red/orange gourami's at a shop, they'd go well I'd think with my room.

Also what about a Betta, or would they male GBR attack him?
