Gold Gourami was previously scientifically known as Trichogaster trichopterus. Gold Gouramis can be found throughout the continent of Southeast Asia.

Gold Gouramis are admired by many because of their fiery and bright, orangish-yellow hue. These species of fishes are primarily found in swamps, marshes, floating streams and canals.

Females tend to have a rounder belly compared to males. Additionally, sex determination can be observed by the dorsal fin of fish. Males have a longer and pointed dorsal fin, while females have a short and rounded dorsal fin.

It all getting started with selecting a 4-ft tank. The first part was to clean and eliminate any harmful things by washing the tank with a brush, chlorine water, and salt. The tank was then left to dry for a while before adding fish.

Above is the video showing where the water was filled into the fish tank. Everything, including dust, has been cleaned. The following section, in which gravel and substrate were added to enhance the view. The aims of this purpose is to make the fish tank appeared like wild habitat, so the fish do not feel stress. Furthermore, I used chlorine-treated water at first to kill and inhibit any bacteria and pathogens that may cause disease.

The water level is considerable with amount of aeration that was produced.  I'd like to mention the decorations techniques. Tank's background wallpaper is important in preventing the fish from seeing any scary shadows on the wall behind them.

These fish where were brought from, a local pet shop owned by bumipetera. It was pretty surprising when you could buy the fish at affordable prices compared to some places. Btw, i forgot to snap a photo of the front.. but here's the facebook page! hehe

PSB homemade by myself. it was my first time i made psb by learning the tutorial from youtube. The purpose of PSB in a fish tank is to promote the growth of beneficial bacteria, which helps improve the quality of the water and decompose many toxic substances such as nitrous acid, organic materials, ammonia, and pond sludge. The ingredients are msg, eggs, fish sauce and non - chlorine water.

The most common type of biological filter is undergravel. It increases the surface area available to the nitrifying bacteria while also maintaining a constant flow of aquarium water over the colonised area. It is reasonably priced, dependable, and highly effective.

Feeding time is given once every two days. Excessive food can lead to ammonia accumulation and finally cause disease. Since gourami and tetra are omnivorous species, they also fed on algae, tiny insects, and small pellets.

1. Water Change
Every week, I changed 30% of the water. The water and debris were removed from the fish tank using a syphon. Dechlorinated water was added to the fish tank, along with salt, to protect the fish from pathogens that could harm them.

2. Magnetic Algae Scraper
This is a very useful way to wipe out the algae from the fish tank without putting our hands into the water. Additionally, algae are photosynthetic they will uptake dissolved CO2 from the aquarium water which will increase pH levels.

Selection of males and females (1:1) Aquatic plants were added in order to enhance the fish's ability to mate. The fish were fed with:

1. Pellet
2. Daphnia

After few attempts were tried. The breeding did not happen. It may be due to the water temperature, seasoning, and breeding places exposed to the light.
