It will surely help him to heal with out the other fish stressing him.
Keep up the good work!

>Hi Donna. The bullying started to become a problem so I decided to isolate the sick Gourami in one of those fine mesh net things that hook into the tank so that problem is solved for now, I was a little worried about stressing him more but he seems O.K, it also gives me the advantage of being able to feed him little and often.

>The two Gourami's were originally the same size so they would give each other as good as they got, and they sort of settled for half the tank each, I think now the sick one is a lot smaller the healthy one is trying to run him out of town.
>
>The main problem is if he survives I would guess it's going to take a long while for him to regain he's body mass in order to put up a fight against the healthy fish, and I'm not sure how long it is wise to keep him isolated.
>
>I have just done a 30% water change and re-treated with the flubendazole as per instructions, he seems a little better but progress seems very slow, or maybe I am expecting too much too soon.
>
>He is still eating well and the stringy waste seems a little better, the rest of the fish have stopped glancing so maybe I am doing something right.
>
>Will try to do a video when I get more time.
