Macropodus opercularis
Paradise Fish, Chinese Fighting Fish, Paradise Gourami
Paradise Fish are known for their vibrant colors and aggressive nature. They are labyrinth fish, meaning they can breathe atmospheric air, similar to Bettas. While beautiful, their combative tendencies make them unsuitable for community tanks unless kept with similarly sized and temperamented fish.
