Unbelievable,,,,,,,,,,, I just looked at one of my Flame Gourami's. His (or her) belly is swollen up like a tick..... I noticed that it likes to feast on my cories sinking shrimp pellets. Anyone see this as a potential problem? Not much I can do about it...

Gonna send it to Overeaters Anonymous

Hey, as long as you have room for a big fat gourami than you shouldn't have problems

I have a Flame Gourami also and it is just like that. Maybe it is just how they are or something? But he eats anything and everything it sees as fast as it can. Sometimes I have to stick my hand about halfway down in the tank to make sure I drop pellets where my cat gets it before the Gourami.
