Description

Pink kissing gourami are a captive-bred pink colour form of the kissing gourami, a fish found across southern Indochina and the Malay Archipelago, from Thailand and Vietnam to Borneo, Sumatra and Java. Growing up to 25cm in length, these unusual freshwater fish are best identified by their pink-white bodies and large lips lined with horny teeth.

Kissing gourami can be aggressive, and males will lock lips with one another. Be mindful of this when choosing tank mates, and consider a planted aquarium with plenty of cover to break up lines of sight.

Pink kissing gourami grow large, so be sure to plan for a roomy aquarium.

In store we feed our pink kissing gourami EBO Pro Soft Artemia, Spirulina and Mussel as well as frozen and live foods such as daphnia and bloodworm.

Every aquarium is different. These are a guide based on water chemistry, adult size and temperament. Individual fish have their own personalities. Introduce new tank mates gradually, keep groups at the right numbers, and watch how everyone settles in. Ask our team if you'd like advice for your setup.

Ordering livestock

We strive to ensure that we honour all orders placed online. However, we are a small, busy shop and tracking livestock inventory can be challenging. If we are unable to fulfil your order, we will contact you as soon as possible to discuss options so that you can decide how you would like to proceed.

If livestock are appearing out of stock on our website, it does not necessarily mean that they are not available in store. If there is something that you are looking for, please contact us and we will be happy to discuss what is possible.

If you would like to view footage of the particular fish that you are looking to purchase, please contact us and we will send footage as per your request.
