Gourami

Gourami are popular freshwater species recognized for their labyrinth organ, which allows them to breathe air from the surface, enabling survival in low-oxygen environments. Native to the slow-moving rivers and swamps of Asia, species like the Dwarf Gourami (Trichogaster lalius) and Pearl Gourami (Trichopodus leerii) are among the most admired varieties in the aquarium trade.

Generally peaceful, gouramis can sometimes show territorial behavior, especially males. They thrive best in well-planted aquariums with calm waters, where they display natural behaviors and vibrant coloration.
