Why is it that I can't find Pearl Gouramis near me? I really want one or 2 for my 20 gallon high. This is so not fair. They would be great with my harlequin rasboras.

It's a shame you don't see them more often. I'm lucky to have two LFS's nearby that both sell them. I didn't even know about Pearl Gouramis until reading about them on this forum.
The female I've had since February this year has grown quite large. I have her in my 29g with 10 neons, 5 blood fins and 4 corys.

Windy,
I don't know how you feel about buying offline, but I bought a red marble bristlenose pleco from a member here and it was smooth sailing sending it USPS from Texas to Illinois. I would buy via the mail again based on my experience. Where are you located?

Sometimes if you ask the LFS to order a fish, and you tell them that you will buy it, they will order it.

I think the real problem is that you're on Naboo instead of Earth where they live natively. I see them very frequently in NJ. My pearl gourami is probably a couple years old now and is definitely the lord and master of my 46gal. I'm not 100% sure on keeping more than one, but i'm by no means an expert. I would ask around and see what the shop owners can do for you.
That's your problem. Move to earth....
I have Pearls in my tank. I have a very old and big male, he is stunning!!
Adam's Pet Safari in Chester have them, they looked to be ~4" for $12.99 each, seemed to be healthy great looking fish.

Cool! That's grown-out pretty well at that size, thus the price I guess.
My old school LFS sells them for $2.99/ea, the newer, fancier one is $6/ea. These are small pearls though. Some are small enough where it's tough to tell if they're male or female.
