Golden Gourmai

Trying one more, actually too big for my 20 gallon tank. But for now, it's in there.

Very pretty! I would like to have gouramis someday, but I need another tank! That guy is lovely though. Good for you.

Thanks, hope he survives.

Thank you, some have a southeastern Asian disease, so this is my last one if it gets sick.

Yeah I was reading that they can be hard to keep due to their diseases, etc. I had wanted to get a dwarf or honey at some point too but now I think I won't. LOL

I have heard the same thing. It has kept me away form them as well. But, I do still want to try keeping them someday. Hopefully, your guy lives a long and happy life! He sure is cute.

Thank you. I have done some online research and most recommend not buying them because they will keep breeding diseased Gourmais (sp) in Asia. Ok, I said to myself, no more as it will just kill more.
