Wow such pretty success.
-
@n03lzz Well, THAT explains things. I have a big huge female who is more assertive than the male. No wonder they never spawn!

@delta9LouDog Freshwater fish generally don't need salt-I say generally because there are some that do better with it, I dunno why, they don't come from salty water........
Gouramis don't really need salt,to answer your question. I've kept mine for years without any.

@UsernameHerePeople yes your point?
-
@delta9LouDog They're freshwater fish.....>_>

do gouramis need aquarium salt?

now i have 60+ fries swimming in the 10gal and i moved the parents out. i put duck weed on top because they like to hid in it. i feed them "first bites" powder food $4 and baby brine shrimp. i had to turn off the filter because it will suck them in, im waiting to get a sponge add on. i have to do water changes very often (3 days) as recommended by pet shop guy. so far so good.

i have 2 males and 1 female in a 10 gallon tank while i upgraded to a 55 gallon tank. i was surprised when the male started to build a bubble nest . i did not know it was a bubble nest until i looked up that they like to breed after the rainy season is over. apparently i unintentionaly simulated the rainy season with no heater, low water level (splash of the filter water return). then i simulated the end when i replaced the heater turned it up to 82F and refilled to top. 4 days l8r i get eggs.

I have a male Gourami about 4 years old now. I tried breeding him last year but no luck, the female didnt seem to want to, but my male seemed like he wanted to. If I got 2 more female gouramis and put them in the tank with him, will the chance of breeding be greater? And are fatter females better? Thanks

@MrCatball
If the tank is big enough so that the male and all the females can stay away from eachother: Yes, definitely. What i've heard of several breeder of gourami and other labyrinth fish... and from one's own experience: The males breed the best with the smallest an weakest females. If a female is a strong as the male or even bigger and stronger it will not accept the male as a partner. I think the male has to dominate the female.

How do you differentiate between a female and a male Gourami?

@Caimingchang A female has a more rounded and stubby dorsal fin and is smaller than a male. The male will have a pointier dorsal fin and will tend to be longer and thinner :)

@MrCatball
Exactly. :D

What MrCatball said with my words:
Look at the dorsal fin. If it's rounded shaped and short it's a female. If it's long and nearly reaches the tailfin with a sharp tip: It's a male.
