i have 6 kuhli loaches,a honey gourami,and a siamese algae eater in my qt.i am having some concerns with my sae and my honey gourami.im gonna start with my concerns about my gourami.he wont come up to the surface to eat the pellets.i have made a few pellets sink right in front of his face and he just sat there and watched them sink.if i move him to my 20 gallon tank after qt is over this saturday will he learn to eat by watching my 5 red eye tetras eat the pellets?
now for my sae.he is only half an inch,so i would like to move him straight to him permanent home my 29 gallon.but i am worried that my 4 inch peaceful female blue gourami might think of him as food.i have no doubt that if she wanted to ,she could fit the sae into her mouth.should i take that risk or not?i could move him to my 20 gallon until he grows to about 2 inches or at least 1 inch if that would help.
