I have two questions

is it normal for the male powder blue gouramis to kinda chase around the female.

I had two males one standard dwarf and the other powder blue. The standard was the aggressor so i put him in my ten gal tank and replaced him with a female powder blue.

will the male PB come out more now that that the other male is replaced and wont be pickin on him?
he still seems timid but i think he will be more active once he relizes that the other male isnt there.

The male will chase the female, so it's better to have some hiding places, so the female can hide a bit.
