I found one of my honey gouramis eating some densa I have floating. I moved the both of the gouramis out of the tank for safe keeping. Later that day I was trimming plants and saw the densa was not do well in that location. I feel they may have been picking at the dead plant matter not the healthy parts. So, do honey gouramis eat healthy plants or not?
Do honey gouramis eat plants?

Mine pick at my plants but didn't do any damage but then again it was my african fern which is pretty tough.
Thanks,
I guess I will just put them back into the tank and wait. I've had no problems with the gouramis until I added some densa and giant micro sword to the tank. The giant micro sword plant is new to the hobby or maybe just to me. I don't know if giant micro sword is on the gouramis take out menu.

Are the honey gouramis like dwarf gouramis? Because my dwarf gouramis are always picking at my plants to build their bubble nest.
Your gourami was probably picking at the plant to make his bubble nest. My male has finally calmed down his bubblenest building fever, but he would pick at my moss, Rotala rotundifolia, dying leaves of Wisteria, and even freshly planted baby Crypts in an attempt to make his nest bigger...
