A pearl/lace gourami would be better than a dwarf... I'm bias though since I love them. You could also look into a flying fox or a syno (check out the many different types to see which ones would be good).

I agree... I think a pearl would be great! I would actually do a trio of them (1m, 2fm)... beautiful fish!

I think a syno is some sort of catfish, not quite sure so dont quote me on that one. Flying fox is a type of shark though:

Edit: Yes syno = catfish

Could always get a smallish Pleco? Possible a bristlenose, clown, queen arabesque, golden. Depends on what type you want really, Plecos like to laze around so if you want an active fish look at something else lol.

Flying foxes AKA siamese algae eaters (not to be confused with the semi-aggresive chinese ones) are peaceful algae eaters. Some certain synos are peaceful as well. But if you want a gourami, I love pearls and they are peaceful and curious, wonderful fish.

do you think i could get 2 pearl gouramies in there with my stocking? (its at the top)

Thanks, orange shark

 

[J4MES]

Ye that should be ok. Make sure you have some form of floating plant as they like to hide amongst these.

[orange shark]

I was thinking of getting some bolivian rams in mine but i dont think 1 would even fit as i think im at the top end of my stocking list! (Please somebody feel free to correct me!)

Thanks, orange shark
