Plecory's Chocolate Gourami Low Tech Planted Tank
Chocolate Gourami, one of my favorite freshwater fish. Chance upon them during my visit to Seaview last week, bought 5 of them & kept them in my empty 2 footer. Put in some wood, found it very empty so went to get some plants & lightset. Somehow or rather, it became a low tech planted tank...hahaha. Yesterday went back to Seaview & got myself some shrimps & another 5 Chocolate Gouramis. Hope you all will like it as much as i do :)

Nice set up bro. Choch gourami is one of my fav too but sadly they are very prone to fin rot.
|
Actually they are cross-band choc gouramis. Very finicky fish.
Good luck in breeding them, didn't have succes with them.... |

Btw, can enlighten me what is the difference between cross-band chocolate gourami & the normal ones? Many thanks in advance. |
I got a few of these plants. They will rot in 4-5mnths :( i think i didnt provide soil and co2?

Chocolate gouramis are very sensitive fish coming from true blackwater. Best to keep them in a biotope style aquarium with black water and low tds/ph instead of a planted setup. They will look awesome and be in better health :)

In any case these are awesome fish. I would one day like to try keeping them with licorice gouramis and wild bettas after I finish my current project and have a tank freed up |

Totally agree these are awesome fish. Can't wait to see the tank once you have it set up! ;) |
