How many people have one of these? I just got a pink/orange one at about 2.5 inches... Got some pics to show me? Any stories or things to watch for? I hear that they are one of the smartest fish. Thanks for the info!

I assume you know thier max size and care requirements, so apart from that, these gourami's are quite intelligent and owner responsive. They can be mixed with much smaller fish. This picture gives you some idea.

Ive got 2, a RTGG at 8" and a standard at 6". The standard has really grown much quicker than the RTGG and tore off his lower lip. They dodn't mix well with each other.
