Hello all, I've kept guppies for years but I decided to try something different and start keeping Honey Gouramis. I had an empty 10G and an almost empty 30G with just a couple guppies. Over the last few weeks I've added 3 young HG to the 10 and now 3 more to the 30.

It took me a liitle while to figure out who was male or female, but now I see I have 3 females in the 10G and 2 males and a female in the 30. The 3 females in the 10G seem nice and settled and seem to enjoy one another. The 2 males and the female in the 30G seem less social with each other and mostly keep each to themselves.

I'm just wondering if it's the gender differences or the size of the group in a bigger tank.

Just looking for your feedback based on your experience. Thanks!

If they were mine I'd move one of the males to the other tank, and move one of the females to the tank with the remaining male, so you'd have one male and two females in each tank.

Thanks, I was thinking that but was wondering if 10 gallons was big enough for female HGs once the male starts pursuing them. Are they a lot less aggressive than guppies?
