Hi all,
I had 3 Honey Gourami along with lots of other fish in a community tank.
1 male and 2 female. 1 of the females was much smaller and paler than the others when purchasing about a month ago. While active and eating she never seemed to grow while the others did. This morning I found her dead at the bottom of the tank with no visible marks.
She was ignored by everything else in the tank, is it possible the male or other female may have killed her? I'm at a loss, she did seem a bit lonely as the larger female seemed to pair with the male but they have never appeared to be breeding, we had planned on adding a couple more females to keep her company. All water tests are normal.
Just wondering if anyone else has had a similar sudden death experience with a honey gourami or might have any explanations, thank you.
