Kissing Gourami

Everything happened too fast. I bought the Kissing Gourami. Early morning, my mum mentioned about keeping "Kissing fishes". I did some researched after breakfast and found that its a rather intersting fish. Kisses can go for as long as 25 mins.

In a article that i read, Kissing Gourami makes nice Valentine's Day gift as compared to the normal ordinary roses. So, whoevere is reading this blog, maybe the next Valentine's Day, u can buy a pair of Kissing Gourami for ur love one.

He told me that Kissing Gourami is a seasonal fish and it might not be in season now. As we made our way for to Jalan Besar auto shop, we popped by a fishy shop. Surprised! they actually have the fishes that we both wanted. The catty fish which he wanted was at a super cheap price and kissing gourami was selling at a reasonable price as well. So we decide to return to the shop before it close for the day.

We went on venturing into the bugis area and got all our necessary things down. Under the hot late afternoon sun, we made our way back to the fish shop. He caught the 2 most active Gourami for me. Then we adjourned home.

Did the norm to release the fishes into my cluttered tank. My mum commented that they are not loving enough. The fact is that they are not fighting. The kissing comes about not coz of love or mating, but rather the kiss come about when they fight. They fight in a kissing manner. Well, they are both from different tanks when we caught them. Guess they got to familiarised themselves before becoming "loving".
