agent_alice Hobbyist Posts: 114 Kudos: 115 Votes: 0 Registered: 11-Jul-2004	I found the body of one of my two gold gouramis this morning. I think it died of fear, because i think it got it's fins nibbled on and then it would just try to hide and stay out of the anonymous nibbler's way, so it wouldn't eat. I don't think it was disease or water conditions. The water conditions are ok
