Chocolate Gourami

The Chocolate Gourami is a really tough fish to keep. It is prone to all sort of problems, from infections to skin parasites. You really need ideal water conditions and plants for cover. They are fine in pairs but if you have many, they will find mates of their own. Chocolate Gourami males and females are hard to distinguish from each other.

 

 

Chocolate Gourami Breeding: The Chocolate Gourami is a mouthbrooder. It takes about 2 weeks for the eggs to incubate and you should see about 30 or so fry.
