It's a female gold gourami . Actually same fish as the blue gourami just different color strain.
 
This is a gold gourami. They're a bit agressive, but yours is amazing! Always wanted one of these guys... Oh, and by the way, they're actually a different strain of the blue gourami. Kinda reminds me of how golden rams are actually blue rams bred to bring out the yellow and get rid of the black spots and the blue body. ~ExoticAquarist, signing ot.

Gold, Blue, Opaline are all color varieties of 3 Spot Gouramis.

They can be mean, especially in smaller tanks, so keep an eye on them. They are super hardy and very lovely fish but some of them have bad personalities.
