Good tank mates

The pearl gourami is a calm, peaceful community fish that settles in well with similarly easygoing tankmates of about its own size. Keep it away from fin-nippers and from pushy or much larger fish that would stress or outcompete it.

Good to know

The gold pearl gourami uses its long, thread-like pelvic fins as feelers to sense its surroundings.
