The Blue Paradise Gourami is very popular due to their unusual body shape and peaceful temperament. They are a Labyrinth Fish and must have access to the surface of the tank to breathe. This gourami uses this specialized organ to breath in poorly oxygenated waters in the wild. They have a thin, compressed body, long flowing fins and are characterized by two long thread-like pelvic fins. Males have longer fins and are more colorful. Only one male should be added to the aquarium as they can be territorial towards one another. This gourami has a smaller adult size, so they are ideal for smaller aquariums. Gouramis are a great recommendation for beginner hobbyists due to their hardiness and ease in care. They prefer planted aquariums and other semi-aggressive tank mates. They are known jumpers so a tight fitted lid is necessary. The Blue Paradise Gourami is an omnivore that requires foods that are meat and algae based.

ACCLIMATION: Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. For new aquariums, adding new fish slowly helps to properly develop the nitrogen cycle, which creates a safe environment for your aquatic pets. A bacteria booster may also help develop a new aquarium for your new fish. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried, and frozen food, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller, unfiltered aquariums.

My Powder Blue Dwarf Gourami, Is twiching and i really don't know what to do i think its ammonia.
My betta is a baby boy (4monthold) When I first got him he was red with white. 2 months ago his growing fins began becoming blue. Abt 3 weeks ago I see that he began losing his color a bit& began becoming kind of transparent, so I took the water to get checked& the water was good but the store couldnt check for ammonia cause they had ran out of that test(water has conditioner). Last night I notice that he started getting a shiny silver color on 1side of mouth& in gill. But he is acting normal

Hi, thank you very much for attending my concern. Giro is a Reeve s turtle that was born in late October, he/she is sharing the space with Taro, another of the same specie 9 months aprox. Giro is getting the Plastron's line pink almost red, and I am afraid the Taro kun is starting to get it as well. I got Taro before Giro but . never happened before. What should I do? Your help will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance
I have bought 2 parrot cichlids about 20 days ago. One of the parrot fish is constantly hiding behind the filter. Eating well but when it comes out to swim the other parrot fish keeps pinching it and doesn't allow to it to move around in the tank. I don't understand the problem. Please suggest what to do. Also the color of the fish is bit dull as compared to other one.
