Comments: These are 2 of my 3 Kissing gouramis I have in my 37gal Tank. The tank is only a week old, and still being stocked. So far it has Anachris, Anubis and Willow Moss plants, and a fairly large Pleco who is very peaceful and like a babysitter for the young Gouramis at times. This is a Video of the Kissing action everyone loves. It is said ot be a test of strength. Usually the winner becomes the Big Fish in the tank and tends to boss around others.
