We have 5 Leapord Gourami's and I am wondering if any one has ever spawned them and what conditions these fish like. There seems to be little or no info on the internet about them. Almost like they don't exist.
 
Also known as African bush fish Centepoma something.
I have no pics of them they are predatory but not overly agressive. We would really like to spawn them but there is no info on them. A friend of ours said he did but can not remember how he did it.
 
I have two and as far as I'm concerned there's no info or history of them spawning in aquaria (that's known about). I find they do best in softer water with plenty of driftwood, plants and having a dimly lit tank. Since they're anabantoids, I can only guess they'll be bubble nesters. They're absolutely softies to any other teammates, just territorial to their own kind. If you're really trying to breed them then its best to let them pair off naturally when they're young.

Hope I helped in anyway
