Can female betta be agressive with tank mates? I mean with pygmy cories... My LFS has a lot of female betta right now and I saw a video of a 300 gallon betta sorority so that's why I am interested :) If there is any chance the betta would kill pygmy corys I would not take the risk for sure. I am...

Ok I will ask them :)

Someone is taking my paradise fish this afternoon, the person told me that my fish would be in a 20 gallon and that she will add other fish like cories or bristlenose. I am happy that she will finally get a big enough tank to live in and some friends :) I hope home depot will get the sand this...

Do red lizard whiptail dig? @Byron I saw this on some sites so I would like to know your experience with that...

I will make sure to get helantium tenellum because I want something not really big, thank you for the informations! Also my LFS now has some red lizard whiptail right now and I will probably be able to go there this weekend! (if you don't remember, it's you that made me discover them)

Ok I will try to rehome them, thanks.

Ok thanks, that's perfect! Also your tank looks amazing. I will probably ask my LFS if they can get this plant, it should not be a problem since they now get plants from Tropica.

@Byron you mentionned helantium tellenum as a foreground plant but I saw mixed opinions on if you can trim it or not so what do you think?

Ok so can I leave them in my 55 gallon?

I have 2 white cloud mountain minnow in my 55 gallon, I have never mentionned it because I am not so proud of it... I got a small group of them 3 or 4 months ago because I wanted another fish with my paradise fish, she ate I think 3 of them in 2 days. The temperature is not suitable for them in...

In the last 2 days everything was okay, there was no constant chasing and I fed the fish at different places so there was less agressivity :)

Really interesting, the frogbits roots in my 55 gallon grow really long and amazingly well but not in my 10 gallon so that might be the cause.

Thanks for your help, the smallest is about 3 inch and the biggest 3 inch and a half so I really think they are both males. They are very agressive at feeding time and then they are really more agressive than usual for around 2 hours after. Is there a way I can help so they are less agressive...

That's pretty much what I tought but would it even be possible for a female pearl gourami to look like that? when I compare to picture on internet, the fish looks defenitly like a male.

Do females get bright orange chest? my picture is not good as I said so it might be difficult to see... I would really like if it turns out to be a female but I really doubt it, the dorsal fin is quite long for a female.

First picture is the dominant male (sorry, these are not good pictures)

I think you are right, if the males continue to harass the female I will rehome the small male and the female. I hope I won't have to but I think it's the best solution. Oh and yes the 2 males are defenitly 2 males, there is no hesitation.

Hi, I posted on another thread that one of my female pearl gourami died last night due to bullying of my other pearl gourami. :(.The 2 males are now being very mean to the female so I think it might end up the same way as it did for the small female gourami that passed away. Would keeping 2...

Thank you for the video, also I would really like to see the tank when it will be finished :)

Other sad new, the small pearl gourami passed away too brobably due to high stress :(

I tought about getting ember tetras but I already have quite a lot of fish with orange color in my tank so I want a fish that will contrast a little bit. I think I might go with neon tetra :)

I already decided my stocking but thanks. I will get 10 pygmy cory and 8-10 boraras brigittae.

I would be interested to see the video :) Thanks for the informations!

I changed the wood position to allow more swimming place, the pygmy corys would also have a cave/shaded area. So should I remove it or there is enough swimming place ? (picture below) I went at home depot and they didn't have the sand but they said the will get some soon so that's good :)

Ok thank you, the choice will be difficult :) It's really fascinating what you said about cardinal tetra, I never heard about that!

I don't really understand how it could have happened, there is probably at least 8 red marks on his fins, face and gills.

Ok thank you

Sadly I think the cory passed away :( I would really like if someone could identify what he had.

My cory looks worst than yesterday and I got a better picture. It's not a cut, the cory is very sick and as I am writing it's floating at the top of the tank :(

Oh ok thank you, I looked at more videos yesterday and I think I would still be interested to get a group of them. Cardinals or neon?

According to seriously fish neon tetra can go in a range of temperature from 21 to 25°c so maybe it could work?

My water is soft, my tank stocking is pearl gourami, hengeli rasboras and bronze cory

25° would be good I think

I already saw this video but it's still nice to see it, this youtube channel is very good also

I think my temperature is too high (25°) but I will have this fish one day in a lower temperature tank. I would probably have them with panda cory wich I can't have right now also because of temperature. I think that's what you have in one of your tank right? I really like how you stocked that tank
