Gold Gourami Aquarium Care Guide

Keeping Gold Gourami in an aquarium requires the right conditions.

Aquarium Information

• Care level: beginner
• Temperament: semi-aggressive
• Diet: omnivore
• Minimum tank size: 30 gallons (114 liters)
• Compatibility: Generally compatible with other peaceful to semi-aggressive community fish of similar size. Avoid fin-nippers or overly aggressive species. Can be kept with other gouramis, but monitor for aggression, especially between males.
• Special requirements: Requires a well-planted tank with plenty of hiding spots and surface cover (floating plants are ideal). A tight-fitting lid is essential as they are known to jump. Good filtration is important, but strong currents should be avoided. They appreciate a calm environment.
