hi i have a few different types of gourami in my tank
2 x dwarf gourami
3x Three Spot Gourami – Blue
1 x Opaline Gourami


i have not changed anything in my tank for weeks and weeks except for rehoming my one male guppy to my mums breeding tank.


but they have all, all of a sudden starting living right at the bottom of the tank, behind plants, rocks or bits of slate. they are all eating, all look healthy and dont seem to be getting any grief from any other fish but have all gone to the bottom, thy all used to swim around, do 'laps' swimming up the tank until their mouths hit the water surface then dart back down again and did this over and over, and now, nothing?!?!?!

in my thank i have
common plec, panda cory, bronze cory, albino cory, peppered cory, yoyo loach, weather loach, golden rams, flying fox, apple snail, zebra snail, silvertips, black widows, odessa barb, albino kribensis, cherry barb, blood fin tetra, silver shark, red fin shark, shrimp (when last seen), hong kong pleco, molly and endlessly bredding plattys



any advice/ help / suggestions?
 
How long have you had them?

I'm gonna ask the boring question....was your tank cycled?
 
Oh god ages then. I don't know, tha's really strange. You should ask in the emergencys sections.
 
How big is your tank? - you have a lot of fish in there...

Have you tested your water recently?

according to that online test thingy i am at 78% stock for my fish, and my lfs agreed so i dont think it is a stocking thing

all my water tests are fine, there is loads of air n the tank - have 2 airstones and a bubbling volcano thing



my only idea as maybe it was the black widows picking on them? but i have not seen this happening?
