Good tank mates

Peaceful and community-safe, the honey gourami is one of the gentlest gouramis and fits a calm community. Good tankmates include small peaceful schoolers like rasboras, small tetras (ember and neon tetras), and corydoras catfish. Because it's shy, avoid boisterous or fin-nipping fish like tiger barbs and anything large or aggressive that could intimidate it or fit it in its mouth.

Good to know

Male honey gouramis flush a deep honey-gold color when displaying to females or rivals, which is how the fish got its common name.
