	Kissing Gourami- Girl or Boy?
dimaano Small Fry Posts: 3 Votes: 0 Registered: 30-Jan-2005	I have been raising two kissing gouramies for 5 years or so and I can't tell whether they are a girl or a boy? I have one pic of the oldest kissing gourami I have: Last edited by dimaano at 30-Jan-2005 15:09[/font]

Anyways, I can't tell what sex yours is from the picture. Each gender is the same in looks and behavior, so it really doesn't matter which one you have. I take it you were just curious? And when he gets to Heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell: "One more Marine reporting, Sir! I've served my time in Hell."

I have 3 that are just under 6 inches at present and they kiss quiet a bit so I am thinking that they are 3 males. But not sure if that is correct. Just what I have heard.
