Is the orange one a sunset gourami? We were thinking of getting one once we get a bigger tank. They are truly beautiful. You are a great photographer, kimmers!

Nice gouramis. I know one is a dwarf blue, but what is the other?

He was labeled dwarf "flame" gourami, and then cobalt blue gourami for the blue one. I believe if you were to travel around and look you would find many color variations of the dwarf gourami with just as many common names to go with them. Sadly the blue one is gone now....had the 2 gourami's in Q tank because german blue ram kept beating them up....then had to put female german blues in Q tank for the same reason and the one female apparently had an internal bacterial infection that I didn't catch soon enough. I thought all I was dealing with was aggression from my male german blue ram and was treating as such until I lost the first female GBR, sadly that was too late for "Silk" my blue gourami, but the flame one came thru just fine and is happy now in my big tank.

Thank you Nix..it was a hard one to accept since both were healthy and I had brought them home after a vacation with the kids over an hour away! I just hadn't seen any locally that I felt were healthy, but when we stopped in at a little "mom & pop" type place after the waterpark weekend they had dwarf gourami's that were absolutely gorgeous so I brought them home. I would love to get another blue one, but with the rescue plec growing so fast I need to save space in my large tank for that and not add any other fish at the moment.

Speaking of...I should probably update my profile! :o
