    i would get a smaller one so u can get its feeding habits to be wat u want. ive heard that bigger ones can be very fussy about food. and make sure u have a big tank. if u wanna see some amazingly expencive ones have a look at www.dragonfish.com

    dying fish

    my bro has a pair or xxl kissing gourami and one of them is on its last legs, we have had these fish since i was living at home so im pretty sure its just old age. is there a humane way to kill a fish? my brother is only 10 so he doesnt want to watch it die over a week. help??? the other kissing has just left it alone, which i think is really unusual coz they have been togetther since day 1.
