Sick Gourami?

[SharkBait1992]

one of my gouramis looks sickly and small but she is eating fine and is hanging out with the group, other than her looks she seems healthy. i got a quick video of her, if anyone has any ideas as to what is wrong just let me know.
*all the fish are at the bottom cause i just recorded this and its night time so they were all resting

How are all your water parameters?
Is she in the 20 gallon tank with two other gouramis? Is there bullying going on with her?

[KatzeSlaugen]

cassie +1. even if you dont see bullying having 3 gourami establish territory in the tank, and also claim surface area for themselves usually ends bad for two gouramis

She looks like a bullied fish to me unfortunately...

[SharkBait1992]

water params are normal
Ammonia: 0
Nitrite:0
Nitrate:5

i will keep on eye on them i might have to take her back to the fish store cause i dont have anywhere else to put her. thanks for the help.

Agreed that we probably have territorial issues here. Gouramis like to have some space. They are one of the fish that completely destroy the commonly accepted (but wrongly so) 1 inch of fish rule.

yea they were all ok for a while ive had them for a few months it bums me out that they arent getting along like they used to

While Honeys are usually a touch more mellow, the others might have been keeping her from or beating her away from food. Looks underfed to me. :shrug:
