I have mostly bettas.

I used to have a gold DT HM male, Extended red delta and copper grizzle delta, but disease swept through my divided 10 gallon for them and killed them...

Oh yeah, about the imbellis comments: LOTS of online betta breeders are now offering imbellis, mahachai, etc. I just hope I can find a macrostoma under $100 someday (Unlikely, I know, but I can dream!)

OK, just interested in what labyrinth fish everyone here is keeping. I will start things off with my current stable:

6 Sphaerichthys osphromenoides (Chocolate gourami)
10 Trichopsis pumilus (Sparkling/pygmy gourami)
4 (2 pairs) Colisa lalia (Dwarf gourami)
2 Parosphromenus deissneri (Licorice gourami)
1 Colisa fasciata (Banded gourami)
2 Trichogaster trichopterus (Opaline Gouramis)


4 Ctenopoma acutirostre (Leopard bushfish)
3 Microctenopoma fasciolatum (Banded ctenopoma)
2 Microctenopoma ansorgii (Ornate ctenopoma)

2 (a pair) Wild-type Macropodus opercularis (paradisefish)
2 (a pair) albino Macropodus opercularis (paradisefish)

1 Male mustard gas veiltail betta splendens
1 Male wild-type 'plakat' deep red & blue Betta splendens

Erg, and the 'imbellis' name has been tacked on to the splendens hybrids (essentially mutts, but incredibly pretty ones!)

I have
8 sparkling gouramis
20 odd Betta splendens (many and varied, do you want the types?)
3 betta smaragdina (picking up another soon)
4 paradisefish
1 female betta yet to be identified (claret group, bubblenester, slightly smaller than imbellis)

next week i'm picking up some Betta falx and B. fusca... and that other smaragdina
