GIANT gouramis

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
At the moment everyone in my tank has white spot it just cleared off last nite so i post more pix tomo :D im getting my green arrowana on friday night so i think i take my GG out and put him a 2 foot tank for a month or 2 then move him into the 4foot tank.

You guys are lucky fish here are expensive it cost me $110.00 for my GG and it was only 12cms :(



Heres my GG i get a better pick later :) he doesnt boss anyone except the other GG but to play it safe i guess i take him out for now so the green can grow bigger and be more dominate.
 
HI MY GIANT ALBINO GOURAMI JUST ATE HALF OF A MAGIC ERASER SPONGE, HE WAS CHOKING AN ONLY MANAGED TO SPIT UP HALF OF IT. I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO, HE IS LIKE A MEMBER OF OUR FAMILY, WE LOVE HIM DEARLY. IM SO SCARED PLEASE HELP.:nilly:
 
I just got a couple little redtailed giants. Hope they make the transition into the new place. Small but they will grow if they live. Shipping is not easy for fish but mst do pretty well if it is doen correctly. Hope the giant that ate the eraser is okay.

Don't feed at all for at least a week - give time to the fish to pass it out. You could also do a water change to prompt it to excrete. Try to minimise stress on the fish as it must be in a bad state already. Hopefully it should be fine.

By the way, how did an eraser get into the tank in the first place??

Nice advise Lou, If you fish you should be able to use a disgorger(in reverse)

I'm glad you asked that question..... any update on how the fish is going?
