Gold Gourami

:-D no problem at all. With the many species of gourami that there are, it's easy to get them confused. Plus so many people will call the same gourami by ten different common names (mainly used as a sales ploy to get people to buy something they think is more exotic than it really is). :-)

Thanks Brandon for the info. I was just trying to help.

Jolly Ibanez, Honey gourami (T.chuna) @ at the link you provided, are a breed of dwarf/semi-dwarf gourami, typically bronze or deep honeyed colored over the majority of their body. Honey gouramis lack the typical spotting, and banding of the gold and blue gourami species, they also lack the red-eye of the gold gourami. There are also the Kissing fish which are one of the largest if not the largest of the species, typically being pure white or creme in color. I can say with all certainty that the fish pictured here is a Gold Gourami.
