Your birds should be very happy with all that flying space !! Congratulations on your Gouldians and Bengalese, they are very beautiful. I love the color of your Gouldians

Yes, you were given good info on the two species and breeding.
Bangalese may want to use the nest box as a bedroom and will soon start breeding, leaving the gouldians on the outside looking in.
Use the divider to separate the two when you give the Gouldians a nest. Bengalese are less fussy. They breed like rabbits.
Other than the breeding time privacy they will get along well.

Thanks,thats good to know, I will take divider out when/if the gouldians have had there first clutch and they have left the nest so they can all mingle together
