Hi can anyone help or suggest any ideas
We have had a Male Blue Gourami for about 3 - 4 years now and are having trouble with his aggression towards other gouramis in our tank (both blue and golden).
To date he has already seen off two of his mates and is at the moment attemping to harrass a smalle golden gourami. (male I think ??)
He has grown to 3.5" and would seem to own the tank.
The only other fish that seems to worry/scare him is one of the shoal of neon tetras that takes non of his attitude !
The tank is 6` x 1.5` x 1.5` which we thought would be plenty big enough for him to tolerate sharing but it would seem not ?
Any ideas / suggestions (short of trading him in at the local pet store) ??
Many thanks
