Had to remove female from tank just a few hours into putting her in with the male. He was too aggressive and beat her up to bleeding! Is this normal?

Okay, thanks guys! Sounds like we'll just have to see.

I am curious to hear about other people's experience in attempting to sell to LFS. We are trying to breed now, and I am concerned how I should approach this. Any advice, tips, recommendations, or warnings? :thanks:

Our main tank is a 30 gallon and houses blue gourami, gold gourami, paradise gourami, flame gourami, dwarf gourami, tigerbarbs, and plicos. I have empty 3 gal and 5 gal tanks that I am planning on using for male and female blue gourami for spawning with Samzter's technique.

Thank you so much! Just a few more questions, if you please. 1) Should we include an airstone, water filter, or both in the nesting tank? 2) What is the rationale to dropping the water level to 10cm? (Showing my inner nerd :oops: ) 3) We have water lettuce on our property. Someone told me...
