Chocolate gourami live foods or freeze-dried, frozen equivalents over flake food. Chocolate gourami The chocolate gourami ("Sphaerichthys osphromenoides") is a species of gourami native to the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, and Borneo. Chocolate gouramis reach a length of . These fish have a chocolate colour with golden bands running down their bodies. "Sphaerichthys selatanensis" has sometimes been treated as a subspecies of "S. osphromenoides". They are restricted to peat habitats. Unlike many other labyrinth fish, which breed by incubating their eggs in a bubble nest, this species is a mouthbrooder. Even more unusually, this species is a maternal mouthbrooder, with the female incubating
Kissing gourami By increasing the angle of opening of the jaw, this joint allows kissing gourami to access to these nutrients. "H. temminkii", however, is the only species known that uses this articulation in this way. The intramandibular joint divides the jaw into two independent elements so that it increases the degrees of freedom and the potential number of ways of getting food. This articulation, although its mechanism and anatomy are still being studied in a hurry, results in an adaptation of Helodoma temminkii and its feeding. Shallow, slow-moving, and thickly vegetated backwaters are the kissing gourami's natural habitat. They are midwater
