So, I have been waiting to see my gourami for a few months, and the signs of sexual maturity have been approaching for a bit. It comes out that I have 2 males and 3 females based upon coloration and interactions.
One of the males is starting to look thinner than the other gourami, and I am thinking I should remove him. I have a couple housing options for him. Unless otherwise mentioned my hardness is 110ppm and 7.4 ph.
1) Planted 10 gallon, currently empty.
2) 29 gallon, stocked with Dwarf Chain Loach, Female Betta Sorority, longfin Leopard Danio.
3) 37 gallon, stocked with hardwater Guppies and Mollies. I am trying to keep it at around 7.9-8.0 ph. (Same length and width as 29 gallon, but as tall as a 55 gallon).
4) 21 Gallon Tall Hexagon Tank, stocked with CPD, Cherry Shrimp, Dwarf Corydoras, single juvenile Betta female.
5) 90 gallon with Orange Chromide, Blood Parrot, Rainbow Cichlid.
6) Keep him in there a couple more months until I can trade him to the LFS.
