More about Frail gourami
The Frail Gourami is a small, delicate freshwater fish characterized by its muted colors, often displaying a blend of pale blue and green hues. Originating from slow-moving waters in Southeast Asia, its body is slender and slightly compressed, with elongated pelvic fins. Despite its appealing appearance, the Frail Gourami is not as popular or well-known in the aquarium hobby compared to other gourami species, partly due to its specific care requirements and less vibrant coloration.
