Sunday I removed one of my 2 gourami's (female) from my tank and put her in another tank. The one that stayed in the original tank (male) is hanging around the top of the tank alot lately breathing in air. More so today than usual, so i was wondering could this be from the water conditions, or possibly from the seperation? He was picking on her and has her fins all frayed. Tank has been set-up for 4 weeks, fish in tank for 3 weeks. The water has the following parameters:
Temp: 78
pH: 7.2
KH: 120
GH: 150
Nitrite: was 3.0 before water change, .5 after
Nitrate: 0
Ammonia: .5
Thanks,

And yes, I know the 5 gallon is too small for a Blue Gourami.
