Added a Cockatoo Cichlid to my 12 gal tank which already contained a year old Honey Gourami and two Black Phantom Tetras. The gourami promptly died from dropsy, I think. It was perfectly healthy before adding the cichlid. Getting ready to go "fishing" soon and this is still my question: another Honey Gourami or three more Black Phantoms? In an earlier post, respondees recommended the tetras, but nobody answered my question as to whether or not the gourami death was a fluke or due to this tank being too small for the cichlid and gourami? My preference is to buy another gourami, unless the Forum strongly advises me otherwise. Thanks.
