Well depending on what kind of bowl yes. I would recommend one bigger than 3 gallons though since gouramis need lots of water. A more reasonable choice though would be to buy a dwarf gourami. These are much smaller and easier to take care of.
I'd recommend it only if you are in a very warm climate, otherwise they'll need a heater. A five gallon with a heater would be my minimum recommendation, and then only one fish in it, too.
Only fish in the same class gourami, and try to keep the fish around the same size as the fish you have.
There are no problems about it. remember that you have to have at least 20 gallon tank, because your gourami and shrimp will need to have space. You may also visit recent website that I built for freshwater fish at : http://aquatropicalfish.com http://aquatropicalfish.com/forum/index.php
A Gourami is a sort of fish that lives in fresh water.
A fish bowl is not a solution its what you keep your goldfish/ beta fish in :P
I would advise not to add a dwarf gourami with a honey dwarf gourami. The honey gourami is very shy and much smaller than the dwarf gourami, and the dwarf gourami is prone to being very agressive. Depending on your luck, you might get a gourami with a nicer temperment. I wouldn't suggest it though.
it depends how big the fish bowl is
Perciformes
The cheapest way to keep a goldfish is to keep it in a fish bowl.........as long as the bowl is big enough the fish will be happy there.
Betta
I guess you mean Puffer fish. If so, then the answer is definitely NO! IMO there is no fish that should be kept in a fish bowl.
No
The best candidates are Betta fish and Paradise Gouramis
