As much as I love the many types of dwarf gourami that you always see in the shops, I avoided them from advice on here.

Came home from my LFS today with 2 red robin, 2 honey and a small group of sparkling gourami :D

Spent most of this avo trying to take pics without distortion from the biorb...

Very pleased with my choice and everyone seems to be settling in nicely :D

I will probably add some more plants...the banana ones are so groovy :lol:
 
Good pics! Lovely.
Just to be a pedant red robins are honey gourami (colisa chuna)....
Mr honey should colour up soon, you can find a pic of a well coloured male in my sig...

Lucky to find sparkling, can't find them anywhere near me and i think they're gorgeous fish.
No space even if i did.... C'est la vie.

Anyway, glad you've avoided Dwarves, all the best for your gouramis (and fishies in general) future health :good:
Liking the bug decoration, is it perchance a light?

Aha! I am glad you told me about the red robins! I didn'tknow if they were dwarves or not! The male honey is starting to colour up nicely already :D

One of the sparklers got into my filter last night, so a few modifications are required..talk about panic :crazy: :rolleyes:

The bug....yep, it's a light :lol: I have an obsession for all things classic VW :blush: :hyper:
 
Boil a fine denier stocking and use it as a cover on the filter inlet, if that can be done with Bio-orbs :dunno:
Thought it was a beetle, my mums the same, i got her a similar light, but in yellow for christmas.
 
My gosh that is pretty....and you have a marimo ball!!!! LUCKY!! :drool: I love that orb tank you have them in, im going to keep an eye out for something like that from now it, it looks spectacular.
