I have a 5-6 inch silver arowana and 2 kissing gourami the bigger one will kiss the arowana bottom and all around then the smaller kissing gourami will follow and do the same thing. Is this harmful to the arowana?

I removed the bigger kissing gourami and the smaller kissing gourami seemed to stop seems like hes looking up to his role model now that hes gone hes not kissing the arowana. But I want to put the bigger kissing gourami back in thats why I wonder if its harmful to the arowana. thanks. :D
 
The arowana seems to be the nicest because the 2 kissers keep kissing each other and when it kisses the arowana the arowana just runs away instead of chasing the heck out of the kissers.
 
I got another question. Does silver arowanas know when they are full? like when I feed them, when there full they stop eating or they just eat and eat as much as you give them?
 
today morning that arowana's head was on the bottom on the tank and his tail straight up pointing to the sky and hes just moving very little vertical head first and then after I came back from lunch he was dead still in the same position.
 
sorry to hear, what are your water parameters, tank size, how long did you have it?
 
the arowana is 5-6inches so i put him in a 10 gallon tank only TEMPORARY until I get him the 180 gallons but the water parameters was fine ammonia 0 nitrate 0. I only had him for 3 days miss it already.:cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry:
