Waterfaller. You put me to shame. You have some of the finest aquascapes, shrimp, and fish I've ever seen. What a wonderful collection of unusual animals. I LOVED your pics.

BTW HOW THE HECK did you get this gourami

I love gouramis and only ever saw honey, dwarf, pearl, threespot, kisser, and giant. And chocolate.

AMAZED I AM TRULY AMAZED BY YOUR STUFF

Thanks so much for the compliments. I love aquascaping. Keeping the plants beautiful like some are able to do is an art I never quite got the hang of. Mine do ok, but I always battled algae . I have bought plants from fellow hobbyists off TPT that are absolutely perfect in every way. I don't know how they do it.
Those fish are a very rare type of Chocolate Gourami. The female is the more colorful one. I will have to find the thread at TPT to remember the name. I also do not remember exactly who I got them from, but it was a hobbyist. All of my fish are bought online. I will post the tanks that go with some of the fish later tonight.

I agree.

I really love your betta set-ups. Been thinking about getting one again, will have to research them again.

Wowed again. You are a MASTER aquascaper. Every one of your setups is beautiful

The live rock 'hill' near bottom left is genius. yet again.

Could you give me a blurb about this gourami species? I've never seen it? What is it? Temp? pH? gH? Habitat? How does one get them? I love gouramis. They're such lovely fish.
