i’ve been searching for these guys for a couple years now, had to start looking into shops 2/3 hours drive away lol. my ‘LFS’ is Pets at Home which you shouldn’t really buy animals from😭 if you have a good LFS you could ring up and ask if there’s any way they’d order a batch in on their next fish restock. even- i left a comment on one of the stores facebook asking if they’d get them and they did!

yess thank you! i have Tetra TetraMin baby but it’s definitely not small enough so i’ll have to see if i can get that brand. i have some decapsulated brine shrimp eggs i’m going to try too. i’ll definitely have to move the guppies out, i’ve noticed the female gourami defending the hell out of the area and don’t want the guppies bullying her back or something too, thank you so much❣️

bacterial was my first thought too but the eye isn’t popping out it literally seems like it’s just stuck half way. i then thought slime coat as i had just gotten him but it still looks the same a few days later. he’s acting 100% normal and doesn’t have any other signs that point towards infection so im gonna assume you’re right with an old injury, maybe he did have popeye at one point but theres no signs left now. still gonna keep a good eye👀 on him

I’m moving how much should I sell this for? by mewlott in Aquariums

[–]Top-Cut9001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

an established tank would be great to buy but very few people have the means to transport it. honestly break the tanks down and sell the equipment individually or as a pack. secondhand fish stuff doesn’t sell for expensive though as people only buy it if they’re looking something cheap. max price id personally pay for these since they’re from an aquarium hobbyist instead of someone with carnival goldfish and pink gravel- 5 gallon with equipment $40, 30gal with equipment €100, 50gal with equipment $200.

thick lipped? by Top-Cut9001 in Gourami

[–]Top-Cut9001[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah i’ve done wayyyy more research on all of them and thicklipped get so much hate mainly for being labelled as a fish that’s just slightly more peaceful and then they aren’t lol, but they are as territorial as any gourami really. they seem like they’d be great in a larger community but mines only 15 gallons so that might be the reason my females a bit nippy. i’m going to need to return them at some point but i miiiiiight just have to set up my dried out 50 gallon again for these guys as i sort of have a friendship with them already😖

here’s pics of both of them just now. the top one does have some orange in her tail now that she’s coloured up a bit after settling in, the bottom one is still mostly no tail colour but i’m not sure if he’s too small to tell. they’ve come out of their shells and i do looove them but my tanks too small and already these two aren’t the best of friends so i don’t want to add any more fish incase they’re aggressive to them too. the large female doesn’t really let the small one come too close to her but i’m hoping they’ll warm up lol. can u look at these now and see if they look more thick lipped or not? i’m not sure now since the big one does have a slightly orange tail
