Dwarf gouramis typically reach sexual maturity at about 4 to 6 months of age. At this stage, males will begin to display their vibrant colors and build bubble nests, indicating readiness to breed. It’s important to provide suitable conditions, such as a well-planted tank and stable water parameters, to encourage breeding behavior.
The scientific name for a Dwarf Gourami is Colisa lalia.

Gouramis aren't really great fish to have together unless they have room to move around (e.g. at least 5 gallons per fish). Your tank is MUCH too small to have two gouramis, they're fighting for territory. If you don't want to return one to the fish store, then you should definitly just get a bigger tank. Unless you have dwarf gouramis, you should have them in at least 20 gallons. It also depends on what kind of gouramis you have. Some are more social and are more likely to school (dwarf gouramis, pearl gouramis) whereas others prefer to be top dog (opaline gouramis, blue gouramis). Good luck!

Dwarf gouramis do not have a traditional nose like mammals do, but they do possess sensory organs that allow them to detect chemicals in their environment. These fish have a specialized structure called the "nares," which are small openings located on their head that help them sense water quality and food. While not a nose in the typical sense, these adaptations serve similar functions for their survival.
