Yes 3 spot gouramis change color/pattern a little bit throughout the day. They come in blue and gold and slight variations of those. Maybe you have a blue and gold 3 spot.

Oh, proves you can only go so far with Google.

Haha yes. Good fish information is hard to find. I've been keeping fish for nearly 20 years now and have made all of the mistakes lol. Umm tropical fish hobbiest magazine is pretty reliable and they have a lot of online articles to sort through.

Fish forums can be good but depends on who is answering your questions really lol. Some people with little experience speak with much authority.

Gourami's-
The second pic is the blue one, its not very good, I'll get another one. I had it on my laptop so I figured I'd upload it anyway.

Aquarium co op on YouTube and their affiliates also have really good videos for beginners to advanced also. YouTube is similar to the forums. Depends on the source of the information.

Cool! I'll have to look there. I signed up for a fish forum, but on that thread none of the members warned me about the cons of raising the fry, or said anything about my tank being over populated with the Gourami's. I knew it was to full, but it still seems they would mention it if they knew it was to full.
I'll bookmark those sources for sure!

Yes a blue 3 spot and gold 3 spot. If they are both males you will probably have to separate them. They can be kept as single specimens, male and female pairs or in harems with 1 male and a few females. Females tend to be far less aggressive than males. In a 50 gallon you could keep up to 3 perhaps. If you have a breeding pair or a harem it will limit what else you can keep with them because when they try to spawn they will become incredibly aggressive. Some people have success keeping a few females together. Results may vary.
