The Emerald Dwarf Gourami is a beautifully patterned variant of the popular Dwarf Gourami, known for its shimmering green-blue body and intricate, maze-like markings. Its iridescent colours shift in the light, creating a jewel-like appearance that makes it a standout in planted aquariums. Peaceful and inquisitive, this labyrinth fish often interacts with its surroundings and occasionally rises to the surface to breathe atmospheric air. Best kept with similarly calm tankmates, the Emerald Dwarf Gourami thrives in well-planted setups with gentle flow, where its colours and personality truly shine. Its manageable size, stunning coloration, and peaceful nature make it a favourite among aquarists.
