Just wondering............

[tabby360]

Im thinking about buying some gouramies and I wanted to know if a ten gallon was big enough.   ???

 

[fishboy]

YAh, that would work a pair or 2 pair by themselves would work 8)

 

[tabby360]

I got 2 guppies ,and a swodtail, and a otocilus. will they get along with the gouramis.  :

 

[scrimman]

Yep.  Just remember the 1 inch of fish (full grown) to gallon rule.
I'd get dwarf gouramis m'self; any variety of 'em.  Mine greet me at feeding time by spitting at my fingers.  Guess they think they're archerfish.

 

[fishboy]

yes, as said above the dwrfs and everything else will be fine 8)

[discusaquarium]

everything sounds good to me

If not dwarfs...honey gourmis are very peaceful, and stay real small 1.5 to 2 inches.

 

[fishboy]

Yes, honey Gouramis are always a good option 8)

 

[Cillana]

Sparkling gouramis are another good small gourami. They get 1.5 inches long.

 

[tabby360]

Thanks everyone. ;D

Just make sure you don't get kissing gouramies. They get to be 12" long! I would also suggest dwarfs. They are great. ;D

I have a pair of Honey Gourami's in my 15G tank and they are beautiful! They are really not shy and the male always wants to impress the female! It really nice to look at!

 

[keprydak]

Yes, I'm going to agree with everyone Gouramis are the best. When in full splendor my honey sunset's in my ten gallon are really amazing. They're really pretty and they're pretty playful too. Good luck with yours

I once had a 10 gal. I had a pair of dwarf gouramis, 6 harlequins and 4 coolies!!! this has to be one of the best swtups i ever had!!!!  ;D
just reamember that surface plants are much appreciated by the dwarf gouramis and not to have a to stong of a filter!!!
GOOD LUCK  ;D

 

[geoffgarcia]

I've got 7  3" gouramis. 2 golden or honey, and 5 two spoters..actually I did, my 10"rope fish ate one for dinner last night...

anyway...I HATE GOURAMIS!They are boring as HELL, and semi-agressive to each other and they eat ALL the plants...if you get some you better plan on feeding them some zuchini they love that stuff.

So if your on the east coast you can have mine...
