The large amount of plants probably helps greatly. Most gouramis I see try to eat Neons but it would depend on the gourami. Sent from my SM-T210R using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Neons are also very fast and on top of that- brightly colored which isn't helping your gourami friend out at all. Gouramis (like Bettas) don't take kindly to bright colors because bright colors equals competition for mates. Plus, he's still recovering from those three Dinos (or are they...

That is a gorgeous giant! I love the female, so very pretty!

Did you check the water to make sure it's safe for him? Does he show any other signs of being sick? Gouramis are occasionally skittish with very fast moving fish like neon tetras- so if the tank and the Gourami are healthy that's probably what's bugging him. Also, they aren't fans of other...

I have decided to go with the Scissor tail Rasboras! Thank you all of you for your help and suggestions! Sent from my SM-T210R using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Thank you, both of you. Good thing I have a spare 1 gallon to keep my betta while I vacuum the gravel thoroughly. This might end up being a 90% water change but at least it'll clear out any nitrate and fungi! Sent from my SM-T210R using Aquarium Advice mobile app

He's better now. Going around making sure everything smells like him. Ragnar even tries to chase him :rofl:

Yes indeed lol Sent from my SPH-M840 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

There's still some stubborn algae flake left. After I get that up, how can I remove any left over spores? Sent from my SPH-M840 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

No, just protection from dust from window removal. He handled it like a champ (quite unlike the cat) I'm trying to remember to fast him on Saturdays.

Aside from the obvious, I've been gravel-vacuuming repeatedly and I'm losing this battle. I have two types: some looks like unfertilized fish/snail eggs (white dots with slick clear gel) and some that looks like standard fuzzy water mold in my 5 gallon betta tank. Outside of Ragnar the mighty...

At all. We're getting new windows which means he gets covered by the towel of doom lol.

I should hope so! I hate for her to be in labor for more than an hour, ouch!

I don't think it would be any more than an hour but when I kept platys I had all males to avoid having fry. But anything more than an hour I'd worry something was wrong (feel free for any breeders to correct me- I may be wrong).

Congrats! :D
