Can I See Your Gourami's :)

[Ruskull]

Yeah I noticed it early enough. I've had similar problems with Platys & Bolivian Ram Cichlids. That's why my son's 20 gallon has the 2 Platy males that get along and the wimpy Honey & Bolivian Ram males. My 20 gallon has the mean Honey G, the mean Bolivian & the mean Platy.............go figure. They're all getting along well in each tank so far.

Here's a picture of my old female 3 Spot gourami, aka Trichopodus trichopterus. She was frequently so threatened by her mate that she would hide in the cory's cave with them. Eventually he jumped too high and launched himself out of the tank. By the time I found him on the floor, it was way to late to save him. The female, from then on known as the "Merry Widow," came out of the cave and spent the rest of her life in peace.

this was my honey gourami, had charactor when I had my hands in the tank some days he would come and rub against fingers, and take food other days he would come and bite my arms untill i took them out the tank lol.

Yeah I couldn't handle watching the Gold Gourami male chase the living crap outta every other fish in the tank. He died & I won't replace him. My female Opaline gets along fine with my Pearls. I didn't get into fish keeping to get more stress................

I'm originally from Long Island myself, Selden/Centereach to be exact. How's the high taxes treating you?

Is that the natural kind? It looks very healthy in that picture.

Im not sure, I think its more the settings on the camera that hasn't showed the colour up properly

Hi Ruskull

I live very close to there. My nearest lfs is Aqua Hut in Coram and I also go to Magic Isle in Centereach or Country Critters in Patchogue for fish. Luckily for me, I live in an apartment complex so I don't have to worry about the property taxes.

Yeah, he looks much more "golden" in this picture. Awesome aquascape too by the way.

I still remember those places from 7 years ago when I lived there.

Nice pics Creg! I'd pay you a small fortune for that very obvious female Sunset (Golden) Honey Gourami in your first pic! I'd love to put her in with my dominant male & make little Sunset babies!!!

Sorry about the loss of "Red" the Flame Dwarf G, sadly it's very hard to keep one of these Dwarf G's alive for long.

Nice young female Pearl G too!
