my pearl gourami 's mate sadly died about 2 months ago,he seemed withdrawn for a while but my lfs suggested leaving a mat e for a while . he's male by the way,i got a pair of silver sailfin mollies and that cheered him up. at least he regained some of his red bellie, so now i'mthinking of moving him to my bigger tank in a week or so ,and getting him a female pearl gourami friend . not too sure wether i need to look for a small female or one around his size...he is 2 and a half years old and quite gloriouscolours when he's got afriend around. any thoughts on this jackie
