So these little guys are in qt atm. I woke up to find the tube for the bubble pump was some how pulled out so not working. Not sure is it was like that before I when to sleep or just some time after.

My question is tho could they have made this bubble nest or is it not a bubble nest? There still babies. 1 1/2 to 2inch at most they look about as long and wide as my adult black neon tetra. I'm thinking there is 2 males and one female.

Very very bad pictures but hoping they work for now.

Those appear to be Honey Dwarf Gouramis, and they certainly can spawn at a small size. If they are showing sex, then they can breed. Certainly looks like the one male has been blowing bubbles.

Ok thank you.
They just look so small to be making nest let alone mating.
and yes they are honeys. I'm had them less then a week even.
One is almost white in color and rounder then the other 2. I believe is a female.
One is the yellow/orange not as round. I'm guessing male.
The 3rd is the yellow/orange with a little black on the bottom fin. I really think he is a male.

Dificult to see, but could it be you've two species ? Trichogaster chuna and labiosa ? The chuna is definitely not a baby anymore

I do have both thick lipped and honeys but the one in this tube should just be honeys.

As there QT in a plastic tote it's hard to get pictures. I can see throw it fine in person but the camera just doesn't like it.

left Female white with a little red around the fins.
right A lot rounder. Male that I think is making the nest. You can kind of see the black on his belly and face. There's not much of it its like its just lightly painted on

One I believe is also male. He's thinner/longer. No black but more colored then the female. Sorry I'd have to fish them out to get better pictures and I don't want to stress them like that as I've only had them a few days.


I do also have 6 other honeys and 2 thick lipped gourami split in 3 other tanks.
