I'm thinking about going to get a fish for my 10 gallon tomorrow, and the honey gourami seems like it would be a perfect fish for my tank. I think the sunset color variety is the best looking and that's what i'm gonna look for, but I've heard that fish of that color variety may actually be dwarf gourami. I'm not completely opposed to a dwarf gourami, but the honey gourami would be a more responsible choice. Really I just want to know, is a sunset honey gourami a honey gourami or a dwarf gourami?
 
The sunset honey gourami is a selectively bred color morph of the normal honey gourami (Trichogaster chuna)
It is a small gourami, but it's not a dwarf gourami (Trichogaster lalius)
