Nice fish, but keeping one muchless multiples i a 10 gal is a not go. With a mixed sex group males will fight over territory and unless the tank is big enough and has tons of cover somebody is likely to get killed. Also, QT these and make sure they are healthy before droppig them in a community tank.

They slightly different from the T.lalius and one of the more peaceful dwarf gouramis out there. Had a large school of these - about 6 - back in the day in a 65g... the only time they get a bit "feisty" was around feeding and breeding times, but otherwise they were pretty chill and often loosely shoaled in the tank.

I agree, that's a honey gourami (Chuna) not a dwarf gourami (Laila). So I agree with chennings assessment of the dwarf gourami, but since it's not a dwarf gourami I am in agreement with aussiejjDude.
