Here they are:

 

[Ludwig Venter]

Does someone have to second the nomination or do I just enter it? ???

Just take a verification photo with the fish and tank in the background and a scribbled pce of paper saying "TFF December FOTM"... then enter it in the FOTM competition.

 

[Carlovel1]

Will do Ludwig.

Good find on the licorice gouramis they will be awsome when fully coloured up.

Those licorice Gourami are absolutely beautiful Can't wait to see more pics!
I've only ever kept honeys and pearls and haven't been too impressed, but after seeing your chocolates and licorice gouramis I must say it's very tempting to try the more unusual ones out in future ^^'

I have to say I've been won over by unusual Anabantoids and rare gouramis, so I hope to carry on buying unusual and hard to get of gouramis, my next one will probably be the Eye-Spot Gourami

I now plan on getting some Eyespot Gouramis and maybe the Giant Pikehead Gourami, a very rare and delicate cousin of the Chocolate Gourami

Missed this post.


These cost me just over £35 for the 3 plus they are only around 1.5cm long

Expensive but worth the outlay i think. I would of been happy to pay that.
