Hi,

I have a 15 gallon tank and Pearl gouramis are usually not recommended.

I however have a female who has already mated before that is less than 3 inches.

Will she be fine in the 15 gallon or will she grow more even after maturing?

My tank has 4 serpae tetra in as well. She looks like she has plenty space for now.

Regards,
 
A 15 gallon is fine temporarily for the gourami. Also, serpae tetras and pearl gouramis are not compatible. The tetras will try to nip at the gourami's ventral fins.
 
Thanks for the info. :)

My tetra don't mess with the gourami, she can hold her own despite her size and they tend to stay well away from her especially during feeding. She's not a tyrant though as they still feel comfortable enough to chase each other around.
