Giant gouramis can get kind of insanely large...

I think kissing gouramis can get quite big too, but a more manageable kind of big

Check the species index.

 

[Fizban]

would they get to big for a 110 gallon tank?

 

[severum boy]

Yes, they will get bigger then 2' and need a tank twice the size of yours. Kissing and snakeskin gouramis wound be a safer bet.

 

[Fizban]

oh well sounds like i may not be able to get one >>>>>>>>>>>i dont wish to get a Kissing gouramis i dont realy like the look of them ...they are okay but just not my thing pluss im not shore if a kissing gourami would be okay with a black shark cuz i dont no how big a kissing one gets and from what i read on the net realy big gouramis are the ones that are okay to put with it

 

[randallhart]

The kissing gourami can get around 12 inches.
