I don't keep gourami's, but this fish came to me with a 125G tank purchase. Took a lot of pics to try and get his tail fin... Was told it was some type of Gourami, but with a little googling I couldn't find a match... ANY help would be appreciated. He's about 6" long, and seems to be holdin' his own with my Peacock Males. Also, I attached a few pics of a Blue Ahli and a German Red Peacock 4.25". Soon, I will be craigslisting these or taking them to the LFS, but thought I would offer them here first. Please PM me if interested in the Peacocks, thanks... Fort Worth, TX

*if i should post this somewhere else please let me know...

If you want to get rid of the Calvus, I would definitely be interested.

Sorry Chaos, the Calvus is one of my homies, and I couldn't part with him...

Thanks all for the help on ID-ing this guy.
