Help! Female Honey Gourami (UK)
Hey guys,
I’m based in West Sussex in the UK and unfortunately have had one of my female honeys die 🥺
I had 2 paired up couples but since she died, her grieving widow (Pat) is pestering the other female non stop. This is making her current male partner (Scarf) very annoyed and they’re all stressed out.
It’s so hard going into a store as they only sell juveniles near me, and I’m getting desperate enough to buy a fish online!
Anyone have any decent recommendations for places I could buy a mature female honey?
If not I will have to think about rehoming Pat and I really don’t want to because he’s so lovely 😭
Thanks in advance x

App leaderboard question
Hey guys,
So I’ve had the app for 612 days and I’ve only really just started having a look at the community. It looks pretty cool and I wanna try and get more involved, but I’m a bit confused how the top 3 on this weeks leaderboard haven’t even made a profile and honestly look like bot accounts?
If I’m wrong, please correct me! Like I said, I literally only just started looking at the app today because I want to buy the pendant lights and I was seeing if their sale was any cheaper than the Amazon sale (it’s not, unfortunately)
Thanks lamp lovers 💡 💕✨

I’m sick of it! This tank has got to go…
My tank is the Aquaone Aqua Nano 60/100 (60x40x45cm) and I HATE IT!
It’s my first ever tank, and I am finally at my wits end 🥲 the internal filter chamber at the back takes up literally a quarter of the tank.
Here are my reasons for hating this tank:
- I’m losing out on all of that space and my fishies are missing out on the swim room
- I need more room to create some visual barriers for my gouramis
- it’s a pain in the arse to get decent flow, because the inlet is top left and the outlet is top right.
- I ended up replacing the power head, light and heater that came with it anyway
- a cardinal tetra once managed to get into the back chambers. He didn’t die from the shock of me trying to get him out, but I nearly did
I am planning on buying another tank anyway (a shallow long) for a different scape.
I have two options:
- Buy a brand new rimless tank of similar size (the only ones I can find of similar depth and height aren’t cheap as it’s not a standard size) swap everything over and attempt to sell the Aquaone tank, despite the crappy resell value.
- Buy my shallow long now to use it as a temporary tank whilst I cut out the internal filter chambers (just need to cut the silicone and remove it… sounds easy, who knows if it actually will be 🙃)
keep changing my mind because option 2 sounds like a mission, but option 1 is guna mean higher costs.
What would you guys do if you were in this situation?
(Photos 2/3 are from a few months ago, just showing how much of the tank is taken up)
