Question
Hii, could you please help me on how to breed my Gourami fish?? Thnkx

Answer
Hi Faizal,
It has been a long time since I bred gouramis but here are some key things. You need to have at least one male and one female. You need clean water but the tank cannot have too much current in it because gouramis are bubble nest builders and if you have too much current the nest will not stay together. Green floating plants are a good idea. Other than that, and a temperature around 80oF, the rest is really up to the fish.
