Gourami Bully

[WoodyAqua]

Hi guys i've recently added two female kribensis to my tank and my opaline gourami will not leave them alone chasing them round the tank constantly, im worried this will stress them out they also seem scared to swim about alot of the time. Can anything be done. My tank is 60litres with live plants and quite a few hiding places.

Comments appreciated...

all i can suggest is what youve already done putting in hiding places and plants just try to break up the line of sight

What is the sex of the gouramis?

Altho it shouldn't really matter because Gouramis are relativly peacefull fish.

I agree with chesterscot. Make more hiding places in your tank so that it breaks up the line of site and the new gouramis have a place to hide so that they wont get to stressed and die.

If the problem persists the you may want to either take the bully out or take the 2 new gourms out?

the gourami will probably be a male since i have opaline gourami in my tank and the male always tends to be bossing the tank about..
