Gourami
- Thread starter rhysiboy
- Start date
Need more info
Size of tank in gallons or litres.
How many fish and which type.
Water stats in ammonia,nitrite,nitrate,and ph.
Can you load a pic up on the forum so we can take a look.
Can you describe the growth abit more, what colour is it, hard or soft to the touch, does it look like it filled with puss.
Does it have a circling dead skin around it.
Gouramis are prone to bacterial infections and with the swelling is sounds bacterial but still need more info.

photo of fish would help enormously.
Also i really would get a water test kit, its an essential piece of Tropical fish keeping. Saying you cant afford isnt an excuse hat washes tbh as you can pickup basic test kits for under £20 which is pennies when you compare to the cost of setting and running a tank. Plus now the "tbh ive never had a problem dont work either

The tank is way to small for clown loaches even when little shouldn't be in less than a 40gal.
I would take a sample of your water to the lfs and tell them to write the readings down for you,
as i doubt the water quality is good.
The lump sounds bacterial with the dead skin around it.
Gourami are very prone to bacterial infections, and need excellent water quality.
