Blue Gourami

Trichopodus trichopterus

Ask Finn

A hardy and widely kept gourami from Southeast Asia, displaying a silver-blue body with two darker blue spots along the lateral line and long, filamentous pelvic fins used for sensing. It is a labyrinth fish that breathes atmospheric air and can be mildly aggressive toward conspecifics, so it is best kept as a single specimen or pair in a 20+ gallon tank.
