kissing gourmi

[just4kickx23]

I currently have 2 kissing gourmis in my 45g high tank along with 1 blue gourmi, 4 bleeding heart tetra, 1 rainbowshark, and 4 albino coreys. For the past 2 days my 2 gourimis have been locking lips and fighting in the middle of the tank. Since then the one whocame out on top of there little fight is swimming around doing fine, but the loser just sits in the back corner. And I've been watching him during feeding and he eats little or no food. Do you think eventually he'll come back out and start swimming around and eating? Everyone else in the tank is getting along fine

Mabye you should move the loser to a different tank? Sometimes defeated fish feel scared of the victor, since they establish territories.

maybe there two males and you'll have to move the loser to another tank!

Don't wait, the loser won't change his attitude. It has lost in is now in the territory of the dominant fish, it has no chance of cheering up, you will need to move it or give it away, sorry
