i brought two male dwarf gouramis from pets at home on monday and when i got home i studied them in the tank and realised that one has the number 8 at the start of its tail fin, its looks rather cool so i thought i would share a picture on this site. enjoy

That's interesting! It's only a matter of time before someone reports a Face Of #92### on a fish...

Why on earth does the word "Jesu + s" get faded out? It's NOT a swear used like that. Let's see if Mohammed, Buddha and God get blanked too.
 
One of the males has started to chase the other, do you think it would be a good idea to rehome one if them?
 
Keep an eye on the situation. They might sort out the pecking order. Shuu, my regular Dwarf, sometimes chases Oko, my neon blue, around the tank but it never goes further than that. Most of the time they hang out and eat together with no issues.

Is your tank well-planted? If not, consider doing it. You can use fake plants if you're not keen on the real thing, just as long as you give them plenty of variety and have a lot in there. For one thing, the blue looks gorgeous shimmering in and out of the plantlife, but most importantly it gives them privacy and places to hide if they want to escape each other.

Don't wait for it to escalate to biting, but if you see it happening more consider rehoming him and getting a female or finding another species that is compatible.
