Hello folks! Happy September Everyone! Vacation time is over! This offering is for a group of 3 Belontia hasselti! You WILL receive BOTH SEXES! I have never had or seen this species of Gourami before and am pretty excited to offer these! They are native to the Sunda Islands near Sumatra and very rare! These are bubble nesting gourami type fish and when I first saw them I actually though they were Keyhole Cichlids. Then I thought they were some form of climbing perch before finally admitting I had no idea what I was looking at! They were imported as "Combtail" Gouramis, Belontia signata but even the importer knew that was incorrect so we got on the Internet and screwed around until we finally made a positive ID. These live in the same area's as Licorice Gouramis and many of the wild type bettas and I have a feeling they were collected in the same area those rare mop spawning halfbeaks I offered before I went on vacation were collected. The fish I have are non aggressive and peaceful towards other fish I am housing with them. They also do not act like typical gourami's and they almost remind me of marine wrasses when they are swimming around or chasing food. I LOVE finding a species like this. It's hard to believe after almost 45 years of fish keeping I still run into fish I have to surf the Internet just to identify! Somebody outta attempt to breed these fish! I read they are "Paternal bubble nesters" but there are no actual spawning accounts written anywhere or video's of them breeding so that information doesn't hold a whole lot of water to me. Win this offering and I will send you the pair in my photo's below + 1 extra fish. I also read these will grow up to 7-8 inches which is pretty large for a bubblenest building Gourami and I couldn't find any photo's of them this large so that may be incorrect too. The fish I have are HEALTHY and eating just about everything I have offered them so far including plain old Tetramin flake food! Shipping will be FREE and if you want me to add some more cool fish to your box let me know, there will be some extra space for that! Folks, I don't mess around. I sell nice stuff. I start all these auctions at a dollar and I offer free shipping and an unconditional guarantee. Trust ol' Lotsoffish. I ship 3 days a week- Monday, Tuesday, AND Wednesday, I also FEARLESSLY ship into ALL temperatures. I'll get your fish to you alive folks. It's my specialty! I can usually ship the next available shipping day after you cough up the loot, and as always, I don't mess around. email me any questions
