If you ant a loner, I would suggest a dwarf. If you want a pair, I suggest pearls. I know from personal experience that a female dwarf usually will pick on a male dwarf, and it won't fight back. But that doesn't happen all the time.

I'll just type up my experience with gourami's.

I started my tank out with two dwarf's and a blue gourami. They seemed to get along, but then one dwarf and the blue one started to pick on the other dwarf, so I put him in a different tank. He stayed shy and hid alot, and eventually he just suddenly died. Same with my other dwarf. He started to attack all the other fish in my tank, and I went away for a day and came home and he was dead I still have my blue gourami. He's by far my favorite fish. He's so gentle and fun to watch, especially when he reaches out with his feelers :3 He's about.. three or four inches big? I highly recommend blue gouramis. They have three spots on their sides, and sometimes they disappear and the gourami turns a dark blue.

Do they eat baby guppies? I'm looking for a solo fish to add to the guppy tank to control the population!

Good luck with your fish. I'm also 15 and thinking of setting up an aquarium. I also get bored easily.

If you haven't gotten a gourami yet, I would be careful about putting more than one pearl gourami in a tank together. I've walked into one of our LFS twice, and two different pearl gouramis had gotten their tails nearly nibbled off! I don't know what genders the gouramis in the tank were, though.

I have a dwarf gourami, and he's great! He's very colorful and dazzling, and would be a great addition to your tank! ^_^

I'm 25 and yes, I still do get bored easily. I have 3 DG's and 3 spot gourami. no one is a bully just yet. Except for the clown loach who just enjoy bothering them. Not bullying-bothering but just being it's annoying clown self.
