Awww...I wish we could pick more than one.

Well I'm a big fan of Honeys, great community fish and colorful centerpieces for smaller tanks.


I forgot an other option!
That's ok! You've got quite a good list to choose from!

Not having much knowledge on gouramis I just googled all the choices and like the looks of the chocolate.

Dwarf Gouramis have amazing patterns! They are one of those FW fish that rivals the color and beauty of marine fish.

Has anyone been able to keep a chocolate gouramis alive? Ive heard they die off really quick.

I have kept both the chocolate and their cousin Sphaerichthys vaillanti without problems - they are usually wild caught so it is best to have a lower PH around 6 to keep them happy. They are quite picky eaters so you have to experiment a lot with foods to find what they like.

I like the dwarf gourami, for its size, its coloration and its spunk. Having them in a tank definately brings color to the aquarium. Just my piece.

I LOVE Giant Gouramis. I just think that they look really cool.
I also like the chocolate gouramis.

I voted pigmy because it's the only ones that'll fit in our 5g. Hope to have our first ones in a week or so. thumbs2:

I'd have to go with the gourami I have, the dwarf gourami. Although, for a close second, I'd have to go with a species that's not on the list, the licorice gourami.
