will a single male dwarf be allright by himself

[MelonMan]

cant find females and i know that males fight

He'll be fine. Actually you are better off having him alone vs. having him with other males where there may be fighting.

Dwarf male gouramis can be left alone in a tank. Or, you can buy 2 as long as you got a lot of cover. They are territorial fish, so you need a big size aquarium if you are buying 2, and they must be bought together. Introducing one, and then a week later getting another will cause them to fight worse than if they were purchased together.

Just a suggestion.

Good luck finding female dwarf gouramis. They are hard to locate.

I do have one single dwarf gourami. He lives in my community tank. He has been in there almost a year with no problems so far.
