GIANT gouramis

This tank is 360 gallons and is tied into my 230 gallon which both feed into a 75 gallon sump and an ultima 2 with 150 gallons auto water change.
Thanks for the info.
Any aggression issues between the GGs, in one photo it looks like they were going for a lip lock?
I've seperated them since that pic was taken. If it was just the GG fighting it wouldn't have been that bad but the aro joined in to help pic on the loser and that's when things got ugly.
I was told they were 4 yrs old. I bought them at this size.
I should mention that they were kept together at the store where I bought them and the guy said they were brothers and had grown up together. They never had a mark on them when I bought them. I think it is possible to keep them together if the tank set-up and temperment are correct.
Hey All,
I am Australian based and i have just had an opportunity to get a Red Tail giant gourami, I am dead keen as i have been looking for a while and they very rarely become available in OZ. I just have a few concerns about if he is a good one as info is hard to find on selecting a good one.
His "feelers" are not straight and true like some of the ones pictured they are more of a zig zag, is this a genetic problem. Apparently the guy i am buying them off just got them in so he is still abit stressed from the trip. Also a pink GG just took a nip out of his tail how soon after damage does meds need to be applied to fix the tail ?
All info would be appreciated
Cheers
P.S. RDFISHGUY awesome tank how do the GG's go with the decorations ? I heard they like a sparse tank
