Get a Dwarf Gourami, 5 Reasons Why!! 

Thank you! I'm glad to hear yours is doing well. The main two you see in most of my older videos grew larger than any other adult I've had so the ones you have are probably similar to the adults I have these days

@@TheAquaticCoder cool. I also have some YoYo loaches. I wasn’t even inspired by you it all just turned out like that. Our tanks look similar to but mine is way smaller

Thank you, I'm hoping to get back to more regular videos. The pond is doing great. The only issue is the Koi is growing quite fast haha. We are planning to move in August so we hopefully will have an outdoor space for them.

Yeah I mentioned this in my experience / care video I did. Was trying to focus on the positives in this video. I agree it is an important thing to be aware of when thinking about purchasing one

Females are known to be more peaceful so either should be fine. In general I've heard that honey's are more likely to be peaceful but it shouldn't matter as much for a female.

The cherry shrimp likely won't work. You might get a Dwarf Gourami that is alright with shrimp but it looks like the general thought is that they will see them as food. The other fish should be fine if they are full grown and the Gourami you get isn't super mean (just individual luck on that)

I'd really recommend a 10 gallon for their comfort. It would probably work if you do water changes often enough. But they'll be much happier with a 10 gallon

@@TheAquaticCoder ok it seems like frequent water changes actually disturb things. When I leave my fish tank alone, my fish do fine, but when I do all the stuff they tell me I should do, my fish end up dying.

@@TheAquaticCoder are you a fish ? How do you know ? You think fish are like humans ..they are animals and think differently than we do

I second @TheAquariumCoder comment. 5 gallons is reallyyy stretching it, they are very active fish

Yes they are and you can likely keep multiple of them. They are rarely sold in stores since they are not as colorful. You can usually find them online though. The red female dwarf gourami still looks pretty good imo

Maybe an honey gourami, but it is really stretching it :( Ideally you should really go for something a little bigger

@@diogoalfaia3238 I was at my local store today to buy some gravel and they had few gouramis in and one of them was blue with tiger red stripes; I bought it. Once home and few while later added to the tank, I am surprised by green over his head, yellow at the sides and purple and pink around tail and red and blues! Looks like a rainbow flag!!!

@@diogoalfaia3238 and he loves to hide himself under the canopy of flowers and hanging roots I have created in the tank

@@juli8vdberg562 look up " paradise fish". They are from the gourami family, and they tipicaly have that rainbow coloration. Does their body shape match yours?

@@juli8vdberg562 try looking up "paradise fish". They are a member of the gourami family, and they tipicaly exhibit a rainbow like pattern. Maybe the fish store sold you one by accident!

I have not kept shrimp yet personally. But in general Dwarf Gourami's are not recommended to go with shrimp for that reason

Amanos are generally too big to be messed with, but they'll certainly eat baby neocaridinas and may attack adults too.

Yeah most likely a fish you have to buy online

I'm planning to buy a gurami but after i read your comment I'll start to think twice 😩
