Female Honey Gourami or something else!?

Hello!
Yesterday I purchaes what I was told is a female Honey Gourami. The fish store owner ensured me it was indeed a Honey Gourami, but upon further inspection, I’m not sure it is. It might be Thicklipped or Dwarf Gourami?

thank you!

 

If any it's a female Trichogaster lalius (dwarf gourami). The fish has no blue colouration at all, I presume? If so, for sure a female.

Hi Mac,
Thanks for your reply. I think you’re right, I think it’s a Dwarf. It has an extremely small amount of blue shimmer, but very very small amount.
In your opinion, there’s not chances it’s a female Honey?

Then there is a slim chance of a young male. If that turns out to be true you will have to remove it soon-ish, as any other gourami (same genus: T. chuna, T. fasciatus, T. labiosa) is fair game to become a target for it.

No way, the whole shape and proportions are wrong for those.

Thanks heaps. I’ve got a male T.Chuna in there at the moment. I think the one in question is a female though, round fins and belly. Will keep at eye out though.
thanks again
