Here are the two beautiful dwarf rainbow gourami's I added to my tank yesterday. I will get more photo's as they are not as manic as the guppies!

Oh wait...you seem to have 2 males. Keep an eye on them, if they are fighting (likely), take one back. They are very territorial :crazy:
 
They look a lot like what I call the original dwarf gouramis that I used to be able to get around Central Queensland, but now they are almost always the pure blue or honey varieties. I think I still prefer your sort. They are lovely :wub: . If I ever get the guppy numbers down I might get some more dwarf's to put in one of my other tanks. I just recently got 4 sparkling gouramis and am enjoying watching them colour up as they get more settled into their new home, so far it looks as though I have 1 male and 3 females. The only problem I think I am going to have with the sparkling gouramis is if they breed knowing about it let alone locating all the fry. The tank is 4ft and pretty heavily planted with timber and rocks, so I could have heaps and never realise :rolleyes: .

Thanks for all the kind words guys I am fascinated by these beautiful fish, trouble is I let the Lfs guy choose the two fish after telling my set up. I have noticed that one of the Gourami's is particularly dominant and gives the more placid one a nip if he gets too close. Should I get rid of the aggressive one and perhaps add two females of a different dwarf breed? Or two of the same breed? Help! :huh:
