Hello everyone, I have a 50 gallon tank (footprint of a standard 55, it is just a bit shorter in height) with a small group of female pearl gourami, young Ctenopoma acutirostre, two plecos (a clown and a BN) as well as a group of 9 orange Venezuelan corydoras. I've never kept cichlids before...

Here are two pictures. I have kept many honey gourami but sexing is ALWAYS an issue. All fin differences for example have been inconsistent, as proven females I have had were identical to my males'... and I have had females with less fat bodies than the males I'm honestly just considering...

Hello everyone. I have a tank set up with a wild honey gourami, currently undetermined sex. For some reason the past few days, the gourami in question has been in the back of the tank and glass surfing, extremely stressed. I had believed it to be a female initially, then a male due to slight...

Was video recording one of my shrimp when I noticed it. Kind of creeping me out! (Sorry to send a link, it doesn't allow me to attach a video, and unfortunately it's impossible to discern from the sand when it isn't moving!) Would love any ideas as to what it is.

I'm unsure of what the lump is as I'm not super knowledgeable on fish illnesses (lump makes me think tumor of some kind?) However I believe that is a common goldfish. They can get very large, over a foot long. They are social and need at least one friend, and a very large tank (preferably a...

I was watching the tank a bit and noticed the one I'm unsure of chasing the female, and then tipping herself vertically upwards very similarly to the way my male does when he's trying to get the female's affections, as well as getting extremely close to the female in a non-aggressive manner. I...

Generally it feels pretty obvious, however this one has had me stumped. She has been chasing one that I'm certain is a female a bit, but I'm not sure if it's just the average gourami-chasing-one-another thing as I've seen them all do that. My male has chased both of them around as well. She...

Hey everyone, I turned my tank light on this morning to find one of my female honey gourami laying on the substrate death with some snails trying to snack on her. She seemed perfectly fine yesterday so this has taken me extremely by surprise. I checked under her gills and didn't see anything...

This is fantastic! The most I've ever managed with origami is a basic crane.

I love trying to 100% games! Unfortunately I've only managed it for a very small number of games though, haha. I've actually never played God of War!

Lately I haven't been playing too many games, but when I am I'm either working on my Terraria world, or chipping away at the platinum trophy for The Last of Us 2. Already got the platinum for the remaster of the first game, all that's left now is the second game!

I see it's been a while since you made this post, did you ever end up getting any of them? If so I would love to know how they developed. If you didn't, I'm genuinely unsure as to how they would turn out. I suppose it could depend on what size they are. I could see their colors becoming a bit...

I agree with the above, that they are all honeys! I will say though, that the first two being labeled as sunsets is odd to me. They look pale even for a plain yellow honey gourami. I have a friend with a honey that is extremely pale looking with similar pigmentation to those ones. No clue what...

I love to draw! I recently got out of a funk and started designing stickers. Here are a few fish and birds I've drawn in the past week or so!

So sad! I hope the neighbors recover from the loss soon, i know how much it hurts to lose a beloved pet. I really do wish people would keep their pets inside, they aren't wild and the chances of them getting hurt is just not worth it :( I will say, I do know that it is possible to teach a dog...

Thank you thank you!

Hey y'all, thanks for the kind welcomes! Here are my 20 long and 10 gallon tanks. I promise I usually keep the water level higher, however I've been having issues with my tapwater for a few weeks now! So I'm stuck with top-ups from a 5 gallon bucket with some floaters filtering it for now...

The way I view it for fish, or any animal at all really, is as long as the animal is not stressed and is provided proper stimulation for whatever its brain's capacity needs, it is not unethical. There is absolutely some fish that it just isn't feasible to provide that for, and some have much...

Hey folks, I've been in the hobby since about June or July of this year. I started off with a 10 gallon with a single male honey gourami, which has since been upgraded to a 20 long. The 20's stocking is currently at 4 honey gourami (1m3f), about 7 pygmy corydoras (the store forgot one!), and...
