Thick-Lipped Gourami

Trichopodus labiosus

AnimaliaChordataActinopterygii

Ask Finn

A medium-sized gourami from Southeast Asia reaching about 4 inches, distinguished by its noticeably thicker, fleshy lips compared to other Trichopodus species and a brownish-orange body with subtle striping. It is a peaceful labyrinth fish suitable for community tanks of 20+ gallons, though it may be shy; the thick lips are thought to help it extract invertebrates from crevices.
