Hey everyone,
I'm coming to that stage where i want a pair (or two) of some sort of centre piece fish! I started my scape 5 weeks ago and it's maturing nicely. Its a aquascaper 900 so 186L, probably 150L after soil and hardscape.
I originally set up the tank intended for a pair of german blue rams but my male died the other day and i've decided i don't want to replace him and try again, so ill be giving my female to my mate who has a male, failing that she will be donated to LFS.
I've always loved gouramis, use to have a dwarf gourami and he was a right character/nutter. So i'm thinking maybe 2-4 honey gouramis? Has anyone got any experience with them? Would they be suitable for a scape like mine?
My tanks running at 25 degrees in anticipation of putting in the rams, but what's the best temperature for the gouramis? Are they jumpers? Do they hunt shrimp?
My current stock is:
14 Asian rummy nose tetra
4 ember tetra (10 more waiting to be caught and transferred from old tank)
20+ red cherry shrimp
Thanks!
