Keeping Moonlight Gourami in an aquarium requires the right conditions.

Aquarium Information

• Care level: beginner
• Temperament: peaceful
• Diet: omnivore
• Minimum tank size: 30 gallons (114 liters)
• Compatibility: Generally compatible with other peaceful, similarly sized community fish. Avoid fin-nippers or overly aggressive species. Can be kept in groups, but males may display territoriality during breeding.
• Special requirements: Requires a well-planted aquarium with plenty of hiding spots and floating vegetation to provide cover. A tightly fitting lid is essential as they are known jumpers. Good water quality is paramount, though they tolerate a range of conditions due to their labyrinth organ. Provide a calm water flow.
