Help With Fish

Hi, I was given these fish. I think they are called gromies or something. One is constantly chaising the other and nipping at fins. It's constant. Should I move one to a diffrent tank? Picture attached.

 

How big is thier tank? The fin nipping is due to the small tank. Do you have the water parameters? Welcome to the forum.
Edit: they are called gouramis. The name is pronounced goo rawe m ees

 

One is a dwarf gourami and the other is maaaybe a chocolate gourami, but not 100% sure.

It is not recommended to mix species of gourami, so I would rehome both of them. We can help you stock your tank appropriately after that.

 

Thank you! Is it ok to leave one in this tank and move 1 to another tank? I have a couple of red wag platys and a couple of Dalmatian mollies in this tank with them.

 

Depends.... how big is the tank? Is the tank cycled and do you know about the nitrogen cycle?

 

I’d find homes for both of them. The tank they currently have looks to be 5is gallons at most. For gouramis, 30 gallons is recommended.

 

Yes it's just a 10 gallon tank and I'm a complete beginner. This is my second tank. It was given to me a few days back fish And all And im a bit in over my head I think. My first is a 50 gallon that has 1 dragon gobie and 1 Oscar and a few big snails. Iv had that for about 6 months but other than feeding and cleaning this tank pretty much takes care of itself.

This 10 gallon is problematic at best. The fish are fighting. There are 10 in this small tank. There is only 1 female to each male Platy. I was told 1 was pregnant but I have no idea. Ph is at 7.5 Ammonia 0 nitrate 2 and 3 are both 0.

Trying to locate another tank to spread them out a bit.

 

Poor , poor fish! You deffinately need a 30 gallon for all of them. Still it wouldn’t be cycled. Is there any local fish store that can take them in?

 

Thank you. Thinking this would be the best place to find some help. The tank was given to me a few days back fish And all And im a bit in over my head.
The fish are fighting. There are 10 in this small tank. There is only 1 female to each male Platy. I was told 1 was pregnant but I have no idea. Picking up a 50 gallon this weekend. So sounds like i need to seperate those two and I know I need more female platys.

the most ideal situation but I'm trying to sort it out.
