| I like the Pearl Gouramis and Sparkling Gouramis. For future tank ideas, I'd like to get some sparkling  They are a great size for smaller tanks and I love their colors with the sparkles! |

| Dwarf Gourami is now tied with Sparkling Gourami. You can thank me later DG lovers. I like dwarf gourami because of their size. I like small fish. |

For me, my favorite would have to be the blue gourami (aka three spot gourami), but that's probably because that's the only kind of gourami I've ever had.
| I also love the three spot gourami. Lots of character!! |

| I love my little honey gouramis-that being said, I've never had any others and I am new to fishkeeping so I don't know if it counts...but there you go. Oddly, though, thepicture posted by TFA101 of a honey does not look like mine at all! Mine are yellow with a touch of orange around the outer fins. Do I have a honey? |

Do I have a honey? | From my reading, there are around 4 different color variations of the honey gourami. One of which is what you described. So I think you do  |

| I have what I have seen called Honey/Gold/Flame gourami. I wasn't sure I liked their personalities at first, especially the older one. But now as they have aged, they have really mellowed out and just chill in my tank. I posted a story about the older one in the age of fish thread. Because of his ordeal, he has a special place in my heart even if he was a stinker when he was older. Looking at "images of gouramis" it looks like I may have the variant of honey.
I would like to get a more exotic looking gourami down the road. |

| I love Pearl Gourami's. I had one when I was little, and she was so cue. <3
Now I'm interested of these Sparkling Gourami's and might add them when I upgrade my tank. ^^ |

| I love sparkling gourami's they're really fun to watch. They hide a lot so if you decide to purchase them make sure you have a lot of ornaments/plants to hide under. |
