i saw a golden gourami at the LFS, can i place it in my 10gal tank with my ryukins? will it attack my golfish? help... :?
Depends on the type of gourami. Dwarfs get up to 2-3 inches. The regular type of gouramis get to about 4-5 inches I believe. I've got two dwarfs in my 10 gallon with a couple of guppies, and cories. The 1 inch per gallon rule is pretty good, give or take and inch or two. My dwarf gouramis don't poop much...then again I only feed once a day. Twice if I give some bloodworms as treats. Oh, don't forget to keep the temp around 72-82 farenheit for these guys.
