Giant Gourami

The Giant Gourami is the largest species in the gourami family and one of the most personable freshwater fish available. Native to Southeast Asia, adults can exceed 60 centimetres and live for over 20 years. Often described as the "labrador of the fish world," Giant Gouramis are famous for recognising their owners, accepting food from hand, and displaying individual personalities. Despite their size, they are generally peaceful and can coexist with other large, non-aggressive species.
