Help why is my Honey Gourami doing the shimmies?
Hello I have one Honey Gourami in a community tank. It’s a 35 gallon tank with 3 filters. I have 7 Cherry Barbs and 5 Panda Cory’s. Last time I have a honey gouramis before I crash my cycle because it was my first time setting up a fish tank. I had two of them and they would fight each other until one of them died when I was out of the house before I could stop it. So this time I got one thinking it would be okay because some like to be alone in community tank. I had my honey Gourami Goldie for 3-4 months now and it’s been a week him doing the shimmies. But the thing is he does it every now and then and just swims around and acts like nothing is wrong. I’m worried he’s stressed or something. I’ve looked it up and seen other Reddit post of theirs gourami being sick and passing away. Or he’s been territorial in the fish tank. He eats well and doesn’t really bother the other fish I have in the tank. I don’t want to mess up again. I learned my mistake and want to improve better for my babies. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!
Also I would like to add that I just did a water change today so my testing is low
