sunset blue gourami?

[ent007]

Hey all, saw a cool looking new fish today at my LFS. It was called a sunset blue gourami. It looked like a honey gourami but faded into almost a light pink/purple

I've tried looking it up and haven't seen anything close to it, was thinking maybe I have the wrong name. Any ideas?

Cheers,

NB

Ok bought two today, they are labelled as Sunset Blue Honey Gouramis. Here are some pics.

Wonder why it's called a honey blue? It looks just like my honey sunset gourami. I don't know anything about the fish you bought, but my gourami is very peaceful. Great pictures, btw!

Thanks, taking shots of the my critters is always hit and miss!

I'm not sure about why they are caled Blue, maybe because the blue markings around the back and the tail, not sure if thats normal or not? The Honey's I've seen are abit more orange. Anyways, they are a very interesting fish. And sure are active little guys.
