Hey, I guess I'm the new guy...

[bluegourami2]

Hi, I'm bluegourami2.

I'm a gourami freak. I've kept just about every kind there is (except for the giants).

I've got one tank right now, with a humongous blue, a pleco, a clown loach, two pear gouramis, and some tetras.

I was just wondering if anyone else out there is as partial to gouramis as myself..

Anyways, I'm glad to be here!

Welcome new guy

Welcome aboard

Hey welcome to the board.

I like ansorgii gouramis, and would like to eventually breed them.

 

[bluegourami2]

I've never tried breeding but I hear it's pretty easy with gouramis. I'm not sure about the specifics on those though...

 

[Angelfish]

Great to have another gourami fan, Ive got two golden cuties =)

Always likes gouramis, but my fish fetish lies with loaches. As for gouramis, if you ever get the chance, sparkling gouramis, are great fun, and spike tailed licorice gouramis are some of the most beautiful fish in a planted tank I have ever seen. Well worth your time if you can find some! BTW, WELCOME to the group!

I have a 3 inch female blue gourami I used to keep with a male of the same size -- he went because he was hassling her big time. She's elegant, feisty (but not too bad) and the richest blue you've ever seen. She's had her moments in the two shorts months I've been running the tank, but she's rock-solid. I want more, but she's the princess of this tank, so if I get more, they go elsewhere. Welcome to you!

Funny you mention sparkling gouramis, pooky, I almost bought two babies today. Way too small for my tank just yet but I'm going back for them in a couple months.

sorry no affinity for gouraims here but i do love catfish.welcome to the tank.i like bettas if thats close though.

 

[ducksarefun]

I love gouramis! When I get my tank set up that's what I want in it! Dwarf flame gouramis! and maybe others

 

[bluegourami2]

yeh the flames are beautiful. I had one once that actually bullied my big male blue. they're real sensitive though.

Welcome!
Love gouramis aswell and have two goldens. But right now i am more interested in discus.

 

[bluegourami2]

Goldens are really cool but I've found them to be more agressive than others so I haven't been able to keep them long in my tank.

 

[cholula]

clown loaches like their own company..
I wouldn't just have one.... so I bought 5.

 

[420Loach]

i have 5 clowns as well(the ich finally cured up! ) they school most of the time but they also pair off, so i need to get the fifth a buddy. i try to at least keep them in pairs.

 

[Angelfish]

Goldens are the exact same gourami as blues, just a color morph.

 

[bluegourami2]

thats true. I guess i'm just not used to agressive gouramis. M male is a wuss. He lets the loach push him around.
