| I have a Flame Dwarf Gourami who is new to the tank. It seems he has just recently started to settle down. Today he spent all of his time in the top left corner of the tank and barely moved except for feeding time. He looked fine then. I went to check on him tonight and his head and belly have turned bright blue! I have Googled it and found nothing except for the fact it may be a mating thing? He has not built a bubble nest or anything though. However he does keep flaring his dorsal fin. Can someone please tell me if this is normal? :/

if he is spending all of his time in the corner of the tank he is probably getting bullied by another fish. as for the blue, I don't know.

| As for the bullying, he lives with 3 Glow Fish, and they pretty much stay out of his way as far as I can tell. He moves around occasionally but goes back to the corner...

:hehe racticing breeding is what he's doing. My female does it all the time, she just loves to uproot those new plants I just spent five dollars on and then use them as a bubble nest.
