Default Re: Gourami turning into a puffer

I feed them a variety of things in an auto feeder, but truthfully, the angels and danios are the biggest pigs of the group. None of the gouramis are big eaters. From what is dropped by the auto feeder, except for the sinking items I add for the bottom feeders to get (which isn't much), the flake and any other type of floating or slowly sinking food is gone in less than a minute. Its an absolute feeding frenzy when that thing releases. At other times during the day, I may drop in some other sinking type food, algae or other sinking waffers or tablets (I break them up in smaller pieces) for the bottom feeders. Some of the other fish my go down a nibble on these items, but never this one gourami in question. I'll try to get a picture posted.
