This species is named for the sparkle effect that is most noticeable when they catch the light. Males display vibrant colors and are particularly stunning during mating displays. Sparkling Gouramis thrive in slow-moving or still water and are perfect for smaller aquariums. They are relatively undemanding but require soft, acidic water to thrive. As labyrinth fish, they can breathe air from the surface, but they still benefit from well-oxygenated water. The Sparkling Gourami is an ideal choice for a peaceful, community tank, and it enjoys the company of its own species, so it's best kept in small groups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"870\" data-end=\"1176\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"870\" data-end=\"929\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"872\" data-end=\"929\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"872\" data-end=\"886\"\u003eDifficulty\u003c\/strong\u003e – Easy (great for beginner fish keepers)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"930\" data-end=\"960\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"932\" data-end=\"960\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"932\" data-end=\"947\"\u003eTemperament\u003c\/strong\u003e – Peaceful\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"961\" data-end=\"992\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"963\" data-end=\"992\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"963\" data-end=\"971\"\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e – Up to 1.5 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"993\" data-end=\"1031\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"995\" data-end=\"1031\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"995\" data-end=\"1008\"\u003eTank Size\u003c\/strong\u003e – 10 gallons minimum\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1032\" data-end=\"1066\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1034\" data-end=\"1066\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1034\" data-end=\"1049\"\u003eTemperature\u003c\/strong\u003e – 74°F to 80°F\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1067\" data-end=\"1152\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1069\" data-end=\"1152\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1069\" data-end=\"1077\"\u003eDiet\u003c\/strong\u003e – Omnivore (live or frozen foods, high-quality flakes, and plant matter)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1153\" data-end=\"1176\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1155\" data-end=\"1176\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1155\" data-end=\"1161\"\u003epH\u003c\/strong\u003e – 5.5 to 7.0\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1178\" data-end=\"1222\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cem data-start=\"1178\" data-end=\"1220\"\u003eThis listing is for 1 Sparkling Gourami.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Poseidon Aquatics And Plants","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46341380571358,"sku":"","price":4.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0645\/4768\/4574\/files\/IMG_8595.heic?v=1780695421","url":"https:\/\/poseidonaquaticsandplants.com\/products\/sparkling-gourami","provider":"Poseidon Aquatics And Plants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
