i've got the opposite case of the gourami attacking the guppies and tetras. I might put the gourami in a separate tank for a day and see if he changes his behaviour.

Hi All, I got some new fish yesterday. I exchanged my clown loach with a guppy and 2 rummy nosed tetras. So now I've got a dwarf gourami, 2 guppies, 2 rummies and one cory catfish. One of the rummies was stressed out for a while after the move, but now is swimming happily with the other little...

Currently in my 20 L tank (5.2 G) I have: 1 Dwarf Gourami 1 Clown Loach (about 2.5cm) 1 Peppered Catfish 1 Guppy I'm thinking about getting another fish like another guppy or a female gourami. Do you have any suggestions? Or do you think my tank is overstocked? I've heard that clown loaches...

Unfortunately I found my guppy dead , and I saw the dwarf gourami and the betta, nipping at the body. In the aquarium I also have a peppered catfish, clown loach and another guppy (these are quite small size). I'm wondering what killed the guppy. Was it the gourami or the betta? I've noticed...
