Dwarf Gourami Fish Care

Taking care of Dwarf Gourami Fish is really easy. Like I said in the video, get a super good heater because it causes gouramis to get sick when the temp drops.

More fish tank madness:
I just set up a piranha tank 55 gal for 9 fry red belly, they do grow quickly when food and the environment is optimal. It’s been month and they went from 1” to 3” in a Amazonian theme aquarium with twice daily feeding of krill and worms, occasional live feeder (not gold fish) to keep them agile... There are a few things you mentioned which made sense, mostly referring to their nature and habitat, yet your tank looked artificial and uninviting. With all the knowledge and experience, you should apply it to the the hobby you seem to embrace and even educate other about...

My red belly piranhas are about to make a migration to a 210 gal also Amazonian theme aquarium, which I prepared while lil ranas we’re putting on pounds in the 55 gal incubator. Since they were about an inch until present, all come up to the from to greet me and feed ferociously right out of my hand, except when being fed live feeder. My tank is well lit and it does provide plenty of hiding places, under drift wood, real plants (which they nibble on for more enriched diet source) and not to mention softer, amber like color, optimal water quality.

Not shy just stressed! Try and apply the same procedure to your fish keeping as you would to raising a human baby or any living creatures that needs and should find everything nature has to offer... Good luck Remember, there are many ways to skin a cat! Thanks for the vids.

My dwarf Gourami is awesome. Please learn from my mistakes and use extreme caution in using these filters that come in the Top Fin kits if you must use them at all! I had this one in my sorority tank. After losing one of my boys to a smaller version I covered the intake valve before using this in my sorority and thought it would be okay. Apparently the nylon I had wrapped over it came off and despite the sponge I had in the valve itself at least three of my girls were suctioned in and killed. Maybe more, since I can only find four out of the remaining six, but the body parts were so mangled I could only identify three for sure. I am heartbroken! I will be taking this back tomorrow and am hoping they will refund it so I can buy a proper sponge filter for the survivors.

I believe you're blaming the filter, for a owners mistake. I'm not sure how this filter would've killed your fish. More likely either they killed each other which is very likely or poor water quality. I have this filter with guppies and tetras and this has never happened. It’s not particularly strong enough to do that in my opinion. I just put an intake sponge on as I’ve just had fry and I wanted to add more surface area for filtration, but even before that it didn’t seem possible.

I like top fin filters. When used correctly, no one gets sucked in and no one dies... It's also really hard to NOT use it correctly... Unless for some reason you decided to leave the intake tube uncovered. The only "issue" I had with it was sucking up my molly fry since they were born while I was at work. It's been in my male bettas tank for 2 months now. I've found when fish get stuck against the intake they are sick or already dead. My mom has a filter made for the 30-50 gallon on her 10 gallon and noooo hidding places and her fish never gets sucked up, I have the same filter on my 15 gallon you have posted and have baby guppies, frogs and a betta in there without anyone getting sucked up. Your fish must have been too weak to begin with or to able to swim away from it.

The only issue I've had with these filters is that mine didn't keep the tank clean enough, so I switched it out for a fluval filter and it works a lot better. But I honestly agree with other people... It sounds like the females were fighting. This is Meep. He’s been through a lot with me as his owner since coming home from the store but he’s doing fantastic as of late!

Yesterday, I added a school of 12 neon tetras to his tank (10g) and a few snails. I took him out, changed his decor, added more plants and hides, acclimated and added the snails and tetras before returning Meep to his home. I lost one tetra within hours, I assume due to the stress of coming home and different tank/water. I saw him start swimming erratically upside down and then he laid down on the green corner hide and stopped breathing. It was incredibly sudden.
