Cool, thanks for that advice guys..   I think I will look into some Rams....   To be honest, the Blue Gourami weren't my first choice in Gourami because of their aggressive behavior.  I used to have some Tetra's and Danio's and such, but the male blue gourami killed them all.   The Dwarf Powder...

Question, and I'm sure this one has been asked many times over...   I have a 37 gal tank.   In this tank, I have 3 Blue Gourami... two males and one female.  The largest close to around 4 - 5 inches... hard to get a precise measurement as they freak whenever I try to place a ruler against the...

Well now I don't quite understand what the heck is going on... I .. used to have... two Blue Grourami in my tank, both came from the same fish store, and from the same tank. They both grew to about 3 - 4 inches but one day about a month ago, the smaller of the two vanished and I never saw it...

I don't think they're females. They look and appear quite identical to the existing one; and they can be clearly seen in the video I linked to in my first post. I will probably let them out in a bit, maybe they ALL, just need a little more time to adjust

I have a Marineland Eclipse 37 Gallon Tank. Inside this tank, I currently have a pair of Angel's; and 1 Blue Gourami. The Angels are roughly 3 - 4 inches, tail to nose. The Gourami is about the same... Anyway, I am adding 4 new Blue Gourami; inch barely an inch in length... I got them on...

Though I appreciate the suggestion, I can say it is not the food, as I feed on the other side of the tank away from the filter intake, and watch the fish and their feeding frenzy, which usually only lasts a few minutes before they've gobbled it all up!

I have an old Marineland Eclipse Aquarium, 37 Gallons. It, originally came with its own Hood top, that included its own filtration system built into the Top. But the Hood itself broke some time ago, and after a recent move to a new apartment, it was rendered in worse condition and thus, was no...

Thanks guys, I'll give it a try!

I've read that it is ok to put some vegetables into my Tank for my Blue Gouramis' to peck at, like bits of lettuce, and sometimes peas... though I've never tried yet. So I just bought a bunch of fresh strawberries to eat, and am now curious if, it would be safe to put a couple into my tank for...

Thank you for the responses guys. Unfortunately, whatever the problem was... It struck the Ropefish quickly, and he did not survive through the next couple hours after I had made the post. In fact I think he passed within the very hour that I posted. Upsetting, these guys are expensive for...

Greetings all... I've been the proud owner of a pair of wonderful Ropefish for a coulpe years now, living inside a 39gal tank with a few Blue Paradise Gouramis. Anyway, a couple weeks ago I did a water change in the tank and took out one of the larger rocks that was in there and replaced it...

In addition to my above post, here's a few pictures of them all; though I had to make them into Clickie Links cause this board wouldn't allow me to use the IMG tags on these urls. One of my Blue Paradise Gourami enjoying a casual Sunday Swim with my two Rope Fish CLICKIE HERE! Two of my Blue...

I currently have 3 Blue Paradise Gourami; sharing the same tank with a Betta... Neither have killed the other yet... the Betta ignores them, and they ignore the Betta... until its feeding time of course then the Betta will get picky and try to chase them away from the food it wants...

I've got an Eclipse 3, 37 Gallon tank by Marineland; it was one of their "combo packages" that I picked up at a LFS a little over a year ago... back when I decided that I wanted to try something that was a little larger then my old 29 Gallon. I decided on this particular tank because its an...

Thats pretty much what I thought, never hurts to ask though. Guess I should go find some sort of a bottom scavenger then; that can take care of any small amounts that might get left on the bottom... what sort should I look for that'll eat left over flakes? Someone at one of my LFS suggested I...

My older brother... (who knows nothing about aquariums, nor anything about types of wood) used to have a 10gal Tank with some gold fish and Tetra's... he picked up a neat little stick he found in the woods one day while walking his dog, and put it in the tank. Nothing ever happened to his...

Thats a good idea... except they won't approach my hand... rather they swim away from it and hide in places where I can't reach; unless I drain half the water out and start pulling everything out! :lol: No, my Rope Fishies are picky. They're quite content with sniffing stuff out on their own...

Well I was just in a Petsmart on my way home from work tonight... Ironically; after reading a thread here earlier today about Dwarf Puffer's being sold by them... and while I was there, I saw them there. A whole tank stuffed with them. They were all really tiny; about a centimeter in size...

Have 2 Ropefish myself... My second one; was found inside a pet shops filtration system after they had thoguht that they had sold out. I happened to be in the shop when they were about ro pull their original tank out and stock something else into it for sale... pulled the tank out and the guy...

I know its an old thread but; was just browsing through the Forum; it caught my eye.. and I just thought I'd jump in anyway... I have a pair of Rope Fish; absolutely love them... they're the only two of my fish that I hope last the longest... Anyway; in regards to feeding them. One of my...

Greetings all. I just recently redid an old 29Gal Tank of mine; after a couple Paku's that I had in it died... roomy neglected them while I took vacation :angry: ... but oh well; it left me a spare tank that I can use for something else. So; I just cleaned it out a month ago; re arranged some...

Thank you! Thats pretty much what I suspected.

Greetings all... I'm a bit new here; but I am not sure if I may have a related issue or not... I have a pair of Reedfish; they're both different colors... one is darker, more of a brownish and the other is more of a yellowish in color. I can only guess that one is a male and the other is a...
