Flamingo Honey Gourami (Trichogaster chuna)
Trichogaster chuna stays genuinely small for a gourami, rarely pushing past two inches, which makes the honey gourami one of the few labyrinth fish that fits comfortably in a nano community. This flamingo line pushes the wild-type honey-amber tone into a softer pink-orange wash. Same air-gulping labyrinth organ as its bigger cousins, just packaged small enough to work in a tank that couldn't house a standard three-spot gourami.
Care level: Easy · Temperament: Peaceful · Max size: ~2" · Min tank: 10 gal · Diet: Omnivore, flake/pellet + small live foods
