Sunset Thicklip Gourami

Trichogaster labiosa

Osphronemidae

📍 Southeast Asia

Ask Finn

A hardy, underrated gourami with a warm sunset-orange body gradating from gold to deep tangerine. Less prone to the health issues that plague dwarf gouramis. Peaceful and personable, it makes an excellent community centrepiece.
