Here's a question

[jfish]

I was just wondering and not even thinking about trying it but since bettas and gouramis(hope I spelled it right) are both labyrinth fish can a gourami be kept in a fish bowl like a betta. It's just a question, I don't plan on acting on it!

I've heard that you could as well. In fact, I had to reccommend it once to a customer because they're blue gourami was just beating the crap out of their little 10 gallon community and they didn't want to buy a whole new tank for it. At least, they didn't want to flush the fish, that's why I told them to pop it in a bowl and make sure they took excellent care of it. So far, they keep comming back telling me the gourami is fine and dandy. I've never done it myself.

I bet a gourami would do fine in a fish bowl (P.S you spelled it right, it took me forever to figure out the spelling *twirlysmiley*)

Yeah...you could...but why? Why wouldn't you want to put it in a nice filtered tank?

I was just wondering, I am not going to do it. It was more of a species question.
