hey all heres my giant gourami 'pearsi' he gets on with all my fish from 3 to 11 inch from cichlids to catfish, snakeheads and charachins but he hates to of my cichlids... its got to the point where im thinking he's going to hurt them as he's huge and bangs them hard against the glass! he hates my 9 inch butti and 7 inch oscar, two pretty placid fish (unusual i know for a butti but this one is), it must be hate because there has been no rift between them... no old issues? very odd... gourami is 13inch and was a rescue from a small tank in a petshop, as was the oscar. i removed the oscar when we got the gourami a few months ago when i had a spare tank due to he's beatings, then he chose the butti... its like he picks a fish to vent on, he runs from a 3inch mayan tho! i had to remove the oscar from the grow out today now both are in hiding from pearsi... gonna have to remove them to a lfs i think! then will he pick a new victim? gutting because ive grown the butti from a baby but both me and the girlfriend have fallen for the gourami, named him, he's like a puppy! think thats all i can do, just wanted to share my experience and vent myself a bit, rant over!-)
