Honey Gouramis are shy, peaceful fish, which will appreciate an aquarium with a gentle flow rate and plenty of plant cover (including floating plants). They can be kept in community aquariums with other peaceful fish species, but do require a fair sized tank with numerous hiding places in order for the females to escape the amorous attentions of the males from time to time.
