Feeding
The pelvic fins on gouramis are adapted to act as long, tentaclelike sensors. Using these, they can detect food, as well as other objects in the water. They will eat most aquarium food, but do require a varied diet in order to thrive. For best result, feed a combination of dry food, live, vegetables, and frozen foods from the AI Naturals Range. Small size gouramis (34cm) are still considered fry, and need several feeds a day.
