Powder Blue Dwarf Gourami (Trichogaster lalius) - Male

Another Trichogaster lalius color line, here softened to a pale powder-blue rather than the more saturated cobalt or neon turquoise lines, this fish a mature male in full color. Same small footprint and same recommendation to run a visible quarantine before adding to a display tank, given the species' history with viral disease in mass-farmed imports. A subtler, softer-toned option among the dwarf gourami color lines.

Care level: Easy · Temperament: Peaceful, semi-territorial with own kind · Max size: ~3.5" · Min tank: 15 gal · Diet: Omnivore, flake/pellet + frozen
