Ive have recently perchased 3 small red gouramis, but not sure what type they are. The LFS told me they would remain small about 6 cm ish.

They are lovely characters, but i want to know what they are so i can make sure they r happy.

Thanks, mike

(I will try to post a picture later)

Red-Robbin Gourami, a red colour form of C. lalia . Ive had them before.


Like this guy?

Could either be a red color morph of Colisa lalia - dwarf gourami - (as mentioned before) or a color morph of Colisa chuna/sota - honey gourami.
