How long have you had the gourami? It took about 3 weeks for my dwarf to learn what feeding time meant, and then he would eat from the top right along with my danios and tetras. I put in sinking wafers for my Cory cats, and I never knew my gourami to eat them, but every fish is different.

Haha, I love all the names and stories! Thanks for sharing!

Hi there! Recently we added a pair of German Blue Rams to our 50g. The man at our lfs assured us that we were getting a male and female, because we wanted to avoid the aggression issue. Now, I'm not so sure we got one of each, and I was wondering how to tell. I can't really see any noticeable...

That's exactly what happened in this case too. It's sad that there is such a problem like that, because they are such beautiful little fish, with amazing personalities. :(

Dwarf. I think they are sometimes called honey gourami, from what I've read. They only get to about 2" as adults.

Thanks for the ideas. I went with 2 sunset gourami and some cobra guppys. Sadly, one of the gourami didn't survive. I think he may not have been genetically sound to begin with, because all params are good and the rest of the fish are fine. I'm hoping the other sunset perks up soon. He has been...

So, is it totally weird that I name my fish? I mean, no one would have a dog and not name it, right? Well, I love my fish just as much, lol, and I'm finding that some of them just have such unique personalities that it seems wrong for them not to have names. For example, the red dwarf gourami...

Hey, so what are some of your favorite stock options for a 10g??

They were added about 2 weeks after the cycle stabilized. All the other fish are fine, as stated in the original post. The sick Cory is dead by now, so I guess it is more just a matter of keeping a close watch on the others to make sure they stay fine.

Help! First some background, I have a 50g, lightly planted, that's been up and cycled for a little over 2 months. I did a water test today and the results were ammo-0, nitrite-0, nitrate-5-10. Ph stays between 7.6-7.8. Stock- 8 Glofish tetras, 5 black neon tetras, 4 longfin zebra danios, 6...

So after gradually increasing the water temp over the past day, all the spots are gone and my fish are soo much more active then they were. I think they must have been sick when I got them, because they never acted like this before I saw the white spots. The water temp is at 84f now and I'm...

That's what I was afraid of. I guess I will be running to the lfs then. Any recommendations as to meds?
