FYI, I have 6 sparkling gourami in a 10 gallon tank with pea sized Angel fry, and I just watched one of the gourami pick off a little Angel fry, admittedly a bit on the runty side. But definitely bigger than would fit in its mouth. Attacked it, then disappeared onto the Java moss with the fry in its mouth. I had initially put them in the tank to take care of a hydra issue I was having due to feeding live baby brine to the Angel fry. I watched for 2 weeks but didn’t see any noticeable decline in the hydra. So I ended up going with the dog dewormer treatment. Hydra 100% eradicated in 2 days.

Trying to look at sparkling gourami videos as I have one in my nano tank, this video helped me understand them a bit. Pretty interesting that it is actually a bit aggressive and territorial (he claimed the bottom area where the plants and rocks are). It killed one male guppy and now chasing all the neon tetras, but never even bothered the gold minnows and otocinclus. I guess they don't like colourful ones. He is a shy type, always hiding under the leaves, but he is definitely the king of the tank.

Pretty cool fish. They're crazy small but have an independent exploratory nature. I'm going to move my pygmy corydoras in there pretty soon and make it a tank with only super small fish.

@Prime Time Aquatics, hi, I have a couple questions. Soon I will be getting many more tanks and I have some stocking questions on 2 of them, both 40 gallon breeders. How many dojo loaches can I keep in a 40 breeder, I got one a couple weeks ago for my 55 gallon and I fell in love with him lol he's so cool and fun to feed and I would love a tank full of them, the dojos would be the only fish in the tank, it would have sand and be lightly planted but still have lots of hiding places. My second question is stocking for a 40 breeder catfish and loach tank, what do you think of this stocking in a densely planted aquarium with sand and good filtration: 5 pictus catfish 3 upside down catfish 3 albino corys 3 skunk corys 6 hillstream loaches 6 kuhli loaches 1 Bristlenose pleco and maybe 3-6 pygmy corys, but ive heard of pictus catfish eating guppies, which are bigger then pygmy corys so im worried they might get eaten, thoughts? Sorry I have so many questions lol

Like you I had my sparkling gouramis with the pea puffer. All three fish; the two gouramis and one pea puffer, live for more than 4 yrs. The oldest gourami lived shy under 5 yrs. It grew up with a rival male as juvenile fish together; I eventually let the pea puffer join them since they ate the same food and were the same size. The two gouramis were sort of best friends, when one of them died the remaining one actually searched for him for weeks. I tried to house 2 more sparkling gouramis with him but he didn't even bother with them, not even when the younger ones would try to display. He eventually died more than one month after the other one.

How are they with the pea puffers? I have two with them being the only fish other than a few khuli loaches that i only really see at night time playing in the bubbles from the air stone, and a small colony of cherry shrimp. I want to add some color, and was thinking of adding a sparkling gourami, but have been told by some people that the puffers would pick them off. Hearing you keeping them together makes me want to try it, although my only alternate would be my daughter's tank that she has three guppies in, as our other tanks are a tiger barb tank, a Betta tank, and a South American cichlid tank. I REALLY want one of these, but I'm just so conflicted, not over the cost as they're only $3 at my lfs, but conflicted as I'd hate for him or her to immediately be a target for my puffers. It is a VERY heavily planted tank, and i just moved some tetras out of my puffer tank into my cichlid tank, and while they were there i can say the puffers never tried to nip at the tetras, or even the colony of cherry shrimp in with them. The only things they ever show aggression towards are snails, and each other when they run into each other. Any input and thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

I'd like to keep those fish one day. I only have 2 black neons left since the others have died of diseases or internal parasites. I also had pearl gouramis for a bit but the 2 that I had died of internal parasites and I couldn't treat them for that. I'm trying to get fish bred in captivity as I don't like getting wild caught fish. I hope that they don't jump out easily as I have a fish tank that has no tops. I'll replant my fish tank as a lot of my plants have died due to not enough ligh and hair algae covering them. I've been struggling with hair algae for more than 2 years. I had salvinia at one point but it died all of a sudden even if I was putting ferts once a week. I did completely stopped fertilizing my plants because of hair algae. Do you think that my fluval 205 output is too strong for those fish as I never fill it up 100%? My ph is around 7.6 and for my gh and kh, I don't really remembeer what it was and what it is now. I have a 30 gallons fish tank. How many can I put in a 30 gallons fish tank? Is it an easy fish to care for?
