This is a great addition to a peaceful aquarium, but cannot be kept with fast nippy fish like barbs and danios. It is also not recommended to mix Dwarf gourami-s with larger Gourami-s like Blue, Gold, Opaline, Pink, Pearl etc. Interesting fact: gourami-s are mouth-breathers; they have a labyrinth organ that allows them to take oxygen directly from air.
