I had a community tank with six blue, three-spot, gouramis. A pair "paired off" and the male started building a nest. They spawned, and a few youngsters started growing up. The next time he started building his bubblebest, I moved them to a bare ten-gallon tank. He built another bubblenest and things looked good. I went out on a date, and when I came home, I found that they had spawned. The male had become VERY aggressive towards the female, and she hid behind the only object in the tank, the heater. She was severely burned on one side and even though I moved her to a quarantine tank, she died the next day. I learned that, so matter how well the fish seem to be getting along, things can quickly change. I needed to put at least one other place for her to hide in. I hope others can learn from my sad experience.
Great video!! My female angelfish was the dominant one, and she was massive. I had her for 11 years until she sadly passed away last year. How do you fish hold up in the heat in summer? I'm from Cape Town, and i lost a few mountain minnows during summer. Do you have any tips to keep them cooler? My tropical fish are fine in the heat.
