There juvenile Pearl Gourami (sometimes called Lace Gourami), Trichogaster leeri, are a surface dwelling fish, as you can see here. Unfortunately, as with many store display tanks, this tank is quite a bit short on cover for these fish.

"We are setting up a larger tank and although the aquarium shop was most helpful we forgot almost all the instructions by the time we got home! So onto your pages again and everything is going swimmingly (sorry - fishy pun)."

"Thank you so much for being so quick! You're very helpful. I ended up reading into goldfish a lot. That way I can get better equipment all around and get on a steady cleaning routine and watch him grow. Thanks again, if anything happens, I'll know who to turn to. :)"
