No, it's not too small. You could accualy add some more fish. I would suggest that you add some more guppies and gouramis becuase they are schooling fish and need to be in groups of three or more.

Here's the deal,the size of the tank is fine,but if your tank is cool enough for the Goldfish,it will be too cold for the tropicals,if it's warm enough for the tropicals it's too damned hot for the Goldfish.
Try doing your homework.

probably its too small for so many fishes to live in........they wont have enough space i mean. some fishes may not like each others company and may try to harm the other fishes. i think two or three fish tanks of the same size to keep the fishes..

13 fish in a 135 tank.... sounds fine to me. ive got a 39 gallon and we started with a goldfish which is about 3 years old, and (all minnows) a smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, and three rock bass that we caught out of my lake. two of the rock bass died from stress of being out of their regular environment, but the others are just fine. just make sure the tank stays fairly clean and only feed them about EVERY OTHER DAY. my sisters goldfish died this past year and this christmas eve, it would have been 7 years old, only because we didnt overfeed it.

The general rule of thumb is one inch of fish per one gallon of water. I have found that you can cheat this amount successfully if you have a good filtration system and pay attention to the cleanliness level of the tank. Just by using that formula it looks like you're okay!

Size does matter! But what's the fish tank got to do with your question?

It's ok, but there may be a little aggression. Adjust the temperature to control behavior.

No. It'd be perfect. Put a little coral in there and you're good to go.
