In nature, gouramis eat small insects and larvae from the surface of the water and graze on algal growth on plants. In captivity, they will eat flake food, freeze-dried food, frozen foods, and vegetable tablets. To maintain good health, supplement their diet with periodic feedings of live foods such as worms.
What is the best food for dwarf gourami?
The fish are naturally omnivores hence prefer both algae-based food as well as meaty foods. Flake food, freeze-dried bloodworms, tubifex, and brine shrimp are all good choices and will provide proper nutrition. Dwarf gouramis are fairly good feeders but lose their appetite when stressed.
How much should I feed my dwarf gourami?
As a general rule, aquarium fish, including blue gouramis, should be fed small amounts of food twice per day. You may choose to feed your gouramis only once a day but two smaller feedings will ensure that all of your fish get something to eat throughout the day.
