No, another hint, the most commonly kept one has panda in its hobby name, but in my opinion looks more like a bumble bee.

Since Kribensis27 you guessed it right you can go next. (if you want)FinalFins said:Correct. How did you know? I thought it was pretty tricky.
I’ve done an unhealthy amount of research on various tiny cichlids in the past. I’ve kept a few, but mostly just wanted to know about as many different types as I could. Especially the South American ones.FinalFins said:Correct. How did you know? I thought it was pretty tricky.
Just FYI otos do have barbels!! They're just very small!BettasAreSuperior said:So, I got this idea from another thread started by I think the username was fishbreeder. Sorry, I don't remember the username. Anyway, We will be guessing the fish! I will go first
Clues
1. A scaleless fish
2. DOES NOT have barbels
3. Mostly dark colors
Ok, here we go. It’s a small (around 1 inch) fish in the gourami family native to ponds and slow moving rivers in southeast Asia. It’s known for creating small “croaking" noises when kept in an aquarium. The genus name starts with T and the species name starts with P. They do best in a heavily planted nano aquarium. They have a base color of brown or gray with tiny, extremely shiny silver, blue, or green scales dappled throughout. They also tend to have some red on their fins. The eye tends to be bright blue.BettasAreSuperior said:Since Kribensis27 you guessed it right you can go next. (if you want)
I was actually going for sparkling gourami. They can also "croak". I’ll count it as correct since you mentioned it.Mouska said:Croaking gourami? I saw these at a LFS when I went there, they looked like larger sparkling gourami.
