Compatability?

I was out buying some doughnuts lol
All gouramis are shy when you first introduce them. They will usually hide in the darkest corner of the aquarium or anywhere shady. I've never had a gourami that's not shy when I introduce them. After a month or two, they will get used to you quite quickly

 

Carl, any insight on the above?

doughnuts

 

True, Dwarf Gouramis are more aggressive in general than Pearl Gouramis But when tank is not big enough for them, they can be just as cranky as Dwarf Gouramis. Pearls can be very aggressive when kept in very small tanks tanks and its not uncommon for them to kill other fish. When in large decent size tanks, they are amongst the most peaceful fish.

 

cool, hopefully it'll work out for fishy55599.

Also have you been feasting on those doughnuts for the last two days or what?

 

lol, yes, I've been sharing them with wife, son and new baby Hamsters

 

good for you. i love dwarfs and i think they are very peaceful. shouldn't be any fighting.

 

mine are very agressive for some reason lol well my female is!! i wish i went for honeys now aswell

 

honeys are definately less aggresive than dwarfs.. and i plan on getting some for my tank!

 

I'e had a large 3 spot gourami in with a shoal of 10 beacons, 3 unknown tiny tetra and 4 cardinal tetra for several months. It ignores small fish, though it attacked other gourami, and hasn't eaten any of them

 

my dwarfs were never aggressive.

 

Oh dear

 

i even have a paradise fish who doesnt beat up my 3 angels, and neither did any dwarf. never have i had any aggressive gourami

 

thats a beautiful pearl ya got there

 

agreed what a awesome photo and fish
