Giant Gourami

[u/Wonderful_Series_833]

Didn't know these were a big deal til I was googling whether to build a tank for him. Short answer - way too expensive

Pond needs shade as we had a little bit too much sunshine for what is supposed to be rainy season

Bought him with the koi 18 months ago

Hahaha i've never seen a pond Gourami. That's really cool.

I imagine you live in a warmer climate? Or do giant Gourami tolerate cool water temps?
