Gold Gourami Lonely?

[BackToTheFishes]

This may be a stupid question,but I've never seen this behaviour before.
I've now got a lone gold gourami in my 3ft,up until a few weeks ago he/she had a buddy.Since the buddy went fins up the loner has been sitting at the bottom back of the tank in one spot only moving for food and the usual gulp of air.no physical issues,just seems bored? Possible?

Possibly. Lost two of mine and the third is now wallowing in the pits of depression, looking very forlorn..

I got my 3 recently and they are occaionally quarrel. Hopefully none of them will died (in the near future) but I wonder what mine would do?

Feel free to correct me anyone,but I think if you fiddle around with decor to break any territories,then add the new fish,it should be fine
