looks good.


is there baby severums in there?

Great Setup, but have to say that those severums are gonna get BIG !! They gonna need at least a 300 litre tank when adults ! and proly will need to get to a bigger tank in a couple months or so ! Just a word of warning, as its for the severums benefit !


Overall, its a nice setup

i would say your gouramis will be to big for your tanks as well.

thanks
the severums are there because someone else didnt want them, i wark at a quatics shop so can put them in the display tank there. The gouramis should be alright as they only need a 20g tank

but yes you will need a bigger tank,but just think how great you can make that look

not to be there bearer of bad news, but blue gourami's will out grow the tank and will become territorial with time, as they are labarynth fish and are quite territorial. Many times they are seen at pet/fish shops as not being aggressive because they come in and are sold quickly enough to where they do not have time to set up their "territory"

be prepared for those gouramis that you have to get around 4" in size... and once the flaring starts, be prepared for overstressed gouramis, one of them being picked on and then eventually going into shock because of the stress and dieing... although they are not as aggressive as the aggressive species of gourami, they are still territorial.

best bet is to have only 1 in such a small tank (although nicely set up ) with such small surface area...


otherwise looks good!

isnt that the smaller gouramis like dwarf and the honey types?

 

[fishlover900]

Nice set up

With Gourami, I'd say just keep an eye on them like you would any fish. We have one and he's one of the most gentle and friendly fish in the tank. He's not territorial (and never has been) We actually had a Blue Pearl Gourami (who passed away at around 3 years old)and he was fine too. Actually come to think of it we've never had a problem with the Gouramis we've had. The only one that had any territorial nature to it was a dwarf that we had. I think it's a per fish thing. Some fish are what their stereotype says, some aren't. (Personally I think our Pleco keeps everyone in line )

Keep up the good work!
