The Chocolate Gourami, Sphaerichthys osphromenoides is another gem from Sarawak. This fish requires quality soft water, pH of 4.5-6.5. Although it has been mentioned that this is a fish for advance fish-keepers, I find that when water quality is maintained, the fish is relatively easy to care for. Provide plenty of tall and leafy plants for them to retreat. This fish makes an excellent addition for a showcase aquarium.
