    It's been 24hrs since I begun treatment... He already seems to be doing better out from hiding and swimming around... During treatment I have read you shouldn't feed the fish... Is that true?????

    feeding my JD's

    When I got my jack he was about 1.5 inch too... He would eat non stop... Now he is pushing 4 inch and I feed him once a day

    Confused

    Initially jack would only push him around when it came feeding time and ignored him otherwise.... Now jack stays in his cave all day doesn't even come out to eat and the gourami is always next to him now and sometimes just lays on top of him... Jack has been acting strange for over a month

    Confused

    Is it possible for a jack Dempsey and gourami to be confused and try to mate with one another
