The gourami is active and colorful. I added plenty of plants and kept it with peaceful fish. It adapted well after a week and now swims around the tank confidently.
Dan Dowd –
It’s a nice addition to my community tank. I made sure to include hiding spots and avoid keeping it with aggressive fish. It’s not shy and enjoys the surface activity.

Great color and behavior. The fish stays calm when there’s movement in the tank. I’ve had it for three months and it’s still vibrant and active.
