Did you know?

The Gourami is considered among the most popular community fish for beginner and hobby aquariums. Sold by family run pet shop Conkers in Felixstowe, they are very adaptable and easy to feed, and rarely cause problems so far as aggression goes, although males can become territorial during breeding.

Gouramis are a very pretty fish and come in a variety of vibrant colours and patterns and can usually be found swimming about at all levels of the aquarium.
