Description: 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.
