Gourami ID Help

I bought a used tank and 3 Gouramis came with it. I was told they are dwarf Gouramis but they don't look like any dwarf ones I have seen pics of online. The Gold Color one is the bully and has been ramming the other Gouramis and the smaller fish. I want to add tetras and shrimp but think I will have to re-home the Gourami's. Any help IDing the fish would help thank you

The first and last ones are opaline gouramis, a colour morph of the three spot gourami. Middle one has the typical pattern of a three spot gourami, maybe a gold gourami. Could you get another photo?

They are definitely Trichopodus trichopterus, which are bigger than dwarf gouramis, so naturally they need more space to stop territory issues.
