Pearl Gourami (Trichogaster leeri)

The Pearl Gourami is a medium sized gourami species with adults reaching 6" long similar to the much more common Three Spot Gourami, however it has a few noticeable differences besides appearance. This species tends to be much less aggressive even after reaching their full adult size. As they mature males will develop a deep red chest which helps make their pearly spots really stand out.
