Honey Gouramis

Is there a problem keeping 2 female Honey Gouramis together in a community tank or do they need to be paired

Thanks

Re the above I meant male Honey Gouramis not female oops !

How big is the tank? As long as it's just the two males, anything from 10 gallons should be fine. If you ever add females, however, make sure you put in at least 2 as one with 2 males would be harassed and chased constantly, leading to serious stress.

Thanks Sylvia

The tank is 18 gallons, have just bought 2 lovely males, they seem to be settling in just fine, if a bit nervous.
