Red Robin Labiosa Gourami (Trichogaster labiosa – Red Variant)
Also known as Red Thicklip Gourami or Red Labiosa Gourami
The Red Robin Labiosa Gourami is a striking selectively bred variant of the Thicklip Gourami, featuring vibrant red to orange hues across its body and fins. It retains the peaceful temperament and graceful swimming of its wild-type ancestors but offers a much more vivid splash of color, making it a standout in any community tank. These labyrinth fish prefer calm, planted aquariums with gentle flow and make excellent companions for other peaceful species. Males are more intensely colored, especially when courting.
