Wow. Thank you. That is good to know.:thanks: I have put the medicine in the tank and I'll be watching Mr.G like a hawk to see if it helps.

The original tank I used to put the young Gourami in was only a 5 gal. so I went and bought a 10 gal. from Wal-Mart and have moved my older Gourami there. I did this just today because before I thought he was better. The spots on his tail were going away and he was his old self. However...

I was able to find Jungle 5-n-1 Test Strips at Wal-Mart. After testing these are my results. Nitrate: 10 (safe) Nitrite: 0 (safe) Hardness: 150 (hard) Alkalinity: 180 (ideal) pH: 7.8 (Alkaline) I know the pH is high but it has always been super high ever since I started the tank. I was told...

The spots are just on his tail, nowhere else on his body. I also do not see anything like viens.

His color is and has been normal. As for his poop I have not seen it. He usually never has stringy poop. The picture I was able to get is sucky but he moves all the time. The spots circled in yellow are actually a dark red. Today it seems as though those are fading but I could be wrong. Also as...

My local pet stores are closed until Monday so I have yet to get a test kit. When I saw it on the new Gourami it looks like raw, medium red sores all over his mouth and sort of down his front. He also had a few on his sides. My oldest Gourami has small red areas that resemble what the other had...

Wow. Fine if you don't want to give advice then go get bent. Say all you want but I can sit here and see that my fish are perfectly happy. The only time they have been sick is after the new Gourami was introduced. I am big enough to accept advice but you all act like I am stupid. I KNOW they get...

I just want to know if E.M. Erythromycin is good or if I need a new medicine so part of my FAMILY doesn't die. So please people enough that my tank is too small, its not, and concentrate on the medicine.

Just as a note I spent months researching the fish I put in my tank. I know how big they will get but I also know how big they are not.

Yea I do know they will get bigger but they are not even that close to needing anything larger. Plus they all get along great. My 2 clowns take naps with the Shark. My Ghost knife, clowns and shark love to get under the same rock for hours and just chill. When I put the new Gourami in they got...

Yea, it is a 29 gal tank and as soon as I can I will be at the store so I can test my water. I will try and get a picture up of my gourami as well.
