Batik Giant Gourami

[nirman]

Check this new beautiful and strange specimen, got it named "Batik Giant Gourami" and currently 4 inch... Some of them got big black marks on body too... This guy has black fins and orange body with little black dots.. Does anyone seen them before? It can be new strain and also can be new species?
I'll post tank pics tonight...

Me to think it's Osphronemus goramy with new pattern. But i wonder if it was Osphronemus septemfasciatus?

Osphronemus septemfasciatus is the tech name for GG.

Yea but color doesn't normal right? Common are just Pink/Yellow, Gray and Albino as i know... But this Orange+Yellow+Black... Just look at totaly black fins. He has fin rot disease currently, that's why fins looks unclear and short. Am treating it with salt..

Nope, another species of Osphronemus genus. currently this genus has 4 species,

O. goramy (Common)
O. exodon (Elephant ear)
O. laticlavius (Redtail)
O. septemfasciatus

Okay didint say i was a expert. but im gonna still stand by the what i said i think its just a common or could be a exodon. my guess he will turn black by the time hes 1.5 years old.ive had my fair share of gg redtail,common,exodon,. but theres others on here that can tell all of us for sure.

Hmmm exodon? If it's exodon we can see the teeths when they are adults, but such a color morph with such a rare species?

From when a gg is young its colours will change alot, I would stick by just a normal common, iv sold and kept alot of young and old gg and they can change body colour in minutes, from dark to light also as they get bigger they markins get less
