Kissing fish, frog is jealous!!

[Thecrabkids]

There around five bucks in michgan so the price is prob three to seven dollara

[TheSonicChao]

why do they do that?



[tony1459991]

how much r the kissing gouramis

[bobjoefredsky]

is that an african clawed frog or an african dwarf frog

[panostsak]

@bobjoefredsky Its an albino african clawed frog.

[Francheska7778]

THEY LOOK LIKE FEMALES

[panostsak]

WHAT MAKES YOU THINK THAT?

[Rocketai]

The frog is like "Place for a threesome?"

[mummyspill]

MY FISH DO THIS OR THEY DID TILL ONE DIED OF OLD AGE. I DIDNT KNOW THEY WERE FIGHTING THOUGH :/

[AnimeFoxxx]

1 dislike came from the frog.

[YummyDonuts575]

Cool I never saw fish kiss each other before

[jayjay2033]

Yea i was about to say that they are really doing that to show dominance.

[hugo12136]

how many gallons is that fish tank

[panostsak]

@hugo12136 29 gallons, enough for one kissing gourami..I had to give the other one away.

[whiteboypatrickkelly]

@panostsak better off anyways Im not sure but I think thats how they fight, so even though it looks cute and thats how they got there name its not good to let them duke it out

[mikemw2god]

Can they hurt each other fighting like tht

[piebomb300]

I seriously hate the single dislikes on videos, but this time I'm kinda giggling because in my mind, the frog disliked this. lol :)

[Stash464]

Did you guys know that both of them are guys xD they prove their power and dominance that way...

[NevaehLeon]

heyy can u get bak to me somehow but umm has your frog eaten those fish?? I would love to get some of the kissing gouramis my im afraid my two male ACFs will eat them. Plz help!!!

[NevaehLeon]

heyy can u get bak to me somehow but umm has your frog eaten those fish?? I would love to get some of the kissing gouramis my im afraid my two male ACFs will eat them. Plz help!!!

[panostsak]

@NevaehLeon If the gouramis have grown to their adult size the frogs cannot eat them. BUT, 2 kissing gouramis in small space will keep fighting and fighting until one starves to death (I had to give one away) plus the frogs are annoying them all the time, as you can see on the video. One of each (1 frog, 1 fish) would be OK but make sure you have a large aquarium because gouramis get very big!

[psybera1987]

muah muah muah hahaha huge lips :D

[hari1408]

that frog is a peace keeper :)

[grahamhendricks]

where do you get your fish they look so helthie

[supereldinho]

The 1 person who disliked this obviously can't kiss...

[00Linette]

lol I have 4 of those PKG (pink kissing gouramis) altho they look like they're kissing they really are just fighting over territory, the frog was probly telling them to break it up, but cute tho. lol

[2001pielover]

this is so CUTE!! hahah xD

[xweetkasummi]

Weird way of fighting o,o

[muchoburrito]

Gourami #1: You're so cute!

Gourami #2: No, you are!

Frog: Heyyyyyyy, lemme get in this.

@ 0:34 Gourami #1: GET OUT OF HERE!

[woshigepro]

that's so cool, i hope my discus can fight like this too

[kostas67reth]

loooooooooooooooool

you should buy him a lady frog. :P

[MeeAndChicken]

that 1 person who disliked this vid is a miserable cunt

[mitch4942]

whys your frog so fat...?

[panostsak]

@mitch4942 It's an African clawed frog...they all look a bit fat ;)

[ZipperHead31]

Lol at the end the fish was like "Hey!! Get lost!!"

[angelface713]

I had a kissing fish named Vito, when we got him, we had another one, and Vito actually attacked and ate the other kissing fish, that was great for my 3 yr old Goddaughter to wake up to.

[badboyyaz1]

damn i have 2 kissing gouramis and i never got to see them do that

[lalarsvids]

what if they were both male..

[panostsak]

@lalarsvids They most probably are. Usually its the same sex of the species that will get into this kind of fighting (it is fighting afterall, not kissing).

[Kurolli]

@lalarsvids  Gay fish! >3<

[BeautifulAngel254]

Stop sucking face! Geez fishes. XD

[Shrink18]

is that what they do all day ? kiss? loll

[panostsak]

@Shrink18 They also play XBOX ;)

[TheAc1219]

@panostsak rofl

[themodedacorn]

[milatica123]

eeeew you got thoose red eyes ugly frog?

[chamblizi]

the frogs like heyy heyyy!! OVE RHERE IM ON THE GROUND I WANNA BE on CaMPRA lol.

[AgozMiyau]

lol at the end the frog pushs one of the fish and he turns and gets angry!! hilarious

[Generalxagent]

The frog gives up trying at the end and dies. Oscar ending :)

[john9T6]

what kind of a frog is that? and what does it eat?

[panostsak]

@john9T6 Its an albino African clawed frog (Xenopus laevis) and it eats almost anything....They love blood worms and any small fish in your aquarium so be careful if you want to buy one.

[loriCADI]

ok akword

[panostsak]

@loriCADI you mean awkward?

[arrrianna9]

@panostsak my pink kisser fish does nothing cuz i dnt have a nother fish and no gravel of watebr

[koolkat771]

[bunnies141]

[mothertheresa4]

[mikeymanay]

[candiswhite]

This is so cute! XD

[BcutieV]

Why Do They Kiss ???? Isnt That How They Fight Or Somthing idk Ill Get Two Kissing Fish And See

[squiremaster96]

Happy for the 2 kissing fishes, but I feel sorry for the frog

[Jifcrunch79]

oh so cute! I wish we could all resolve our anger by kissing hehehe

[panostsak]

@Jifcrunch79 hahaha imagine two big guys after a football game about to get into a fight : "Hey asshole, you better shut that mouth of yours or I am going to kiss it so hard, you will be using lip balm for the rest of your life!"

[ciciironwill27]

@panostsak HAHAH LMAO that would be sooo funny!

[Dillon1225]

@panostsak I really am imagining that, And sir, I just pissed on my cat.

[Caimingchang]

[gluvuv]

[ursojealous11]

[FancyPantsElitist]

[c75342]

喇雞~喇雞!!

[oneprincess777]

lmaof 5***********

[worshipshrimp]

Ha my paradise gouramis "Kiss" sometimes but they normally fight alot after that so it kinda ruins it.

[99fishlover]

my gold gourmis were kissing 2day 4 like a second.. lol

[fugazi0311]

lol I love how the frog's like, "What's up dudes?"

[24Bisma]

@fugazi0311 lol

[22aim]

Did you know that when kissing gouramis kiss, they are really fighting and trying to rip each others faces off. True!

[alexpaton101]

wow love these fish i got one in my tank with 2 red robin gouramis and other fish i have a frog too but hes really shy not like yours i only got him a few weeks ago tho. i love to watch him go to the surface for air and then float back down it amuses me :-D

[zerosk8ter9]

wow your fish are huge! i had some but they were all small

[Iamplatyfish]

In the end the gourami to the right is like ''Whats wrong? We were just fighting.''

[kaisaw0lf]

Don't they have a very long lifespan? I've heard that they normally live for 5 years yet I've had 1 for 14 years

[panostsak]

Yes they do actually have a rather long life span as species, but in captivity they usually live a shorter life. Although some aquarists have had them for more than 10 years.

[iamunconscious]

LOL awesome! The frog is like "I want to get a piece of this action!" XD

[marialuvsmusic4]

I have 2 Kissing Gouramis and a blue gourami in my 10 gallon fish tank. The two kissing gouramis always fight. What can i do?

[panostsak]

I am sorry but a 10 gallon tank is way too small for kissing gouramis....They grow quite big, I have one in a 35 gallon and it is on the limit...almost too small for it. The lack of space makes them fight and thats why I had to give one mine away....I suggest you do something about it soon...the water will become toxic very often and they will die because of their size...

[seel1990]

that looks like a jewel aquarium (rekord) i have a 30 gallon whats yours;)

[panostsak]

Mine is a 30 gallon too....thats why I had to give away one of the gouramis..If I knew any better I would go for a 60+ gallon...What fish do you have?

[seel1990]

i have a pair of dwarf gourami, a pair of opaline gourami, a pair of gold gourami, a pair of pearl gourami and a red tailed shark.

what about you;)

[panostsak]

Wow lots of gouramis hehe...Besides the kissing gourami I have 3 german blue rams and a gold one, a pleco, neon tetras, guppies, 3 glass catfish and a redline topredo ram.

[seel1990]

nice.

come to think of it i do have lots of gourami. i guess i couldnt help myself when i was in the pet store lol;)

[amber12345678999]

when two fish kiss, they are actually fighting to show strength. whichever fish lets go of the lip lock, is the weaker fish. they do this as a territorial thing. i read it in a fish book from the library.

[rich81090]

how large can they grow?

[panostsak]

6-7 inches....sometimes larger

[beloitrose]

i have two.. one smaller one bigger.. they never 'kiss'..the big one only chases the smaller.. anyone know why?

[panostsak]

Unfortunately the bigger one will always chase the smaller...I suggest you find a solution, otherwise the smaller one might die from starvation. It will only "kiss" when it feels confident that it can fight back...as long as it is scared and overwhelmed by the bigger one it will not do anything. You should always get the same size of both, I wish you good luck.

[mrdavesmagic]

That was a cute video.  Its like a frog telling them to 'Get a Room'.. Great video!!! I used to own them. Thanks for the good video!!

[totaldollar]

LOL "If both of your gouramis are males they will "kiss" sooner or later." that sounded real funny hehe.

[stephshane1]

do the kissing fish like live or fake plants?

or does it matter?

just wondering im about to buy some

[panostsak]

It doesnt really matter when it comes down to the fish themselves, but the water quality is a bit better with live plants. The particular fish will like it since more algae accumulates in plastic plants and they love licking it off. Just make sure you have space, because I had to give one of them away recently, he kept bullying the other to a point where he couldnt eat and was about to starve.

[ES5019ES]

i want to buy some of these but my tanks are full of cichlids

[shebaa702]

How old are they

[panostsak]

They are around 3 years old

[shebaa702]

Do they grow fast i just baught two a week ago and there 1 1/2 inches and they are in a 60 gal tank?

Thanks

[panostsak]

Well they do grow like any other fish, mine reached this size (about 6 inches) in a year. 60 gal would be OK, although it is better if the aquarium is thin and long rather than thick and almost square since they tend to fight a lot if there is not enough space. Make sure that there are plants for one of them to hide in case it gets bullied by the other, since usually one of them becomes dominant.

[shiefster]

can they kill each other? by kissing?

if they kiss it means that they are fighting right? i have two kissing gouramis, but they didt kiss yet,

looks like they live in peace

[panostsak]

no no, they cant cause damage to each other since they only have big lips to graze on algae...this kissing is a show off of strength..Sometimes they bite each other's body but they just get scared and chase each other, but in general they are quite friendly. If both of your gouramis are males they will "kiss" sooner or later..

[Jack4740isback]

Gouramis will not directly inflict damage on each other. My father had two gouramis 10 years ago, they did'nt fight, however 1 gourami bullied and the other one and continously kept it in the corner eventually causing it to starve to death.

[moofdebowl]

yeah thats happened to me so may times with gouramies, i give up on them. ive lost about 5 from that. If anyone out there wants to know, I recommend you keep one, or a medium sized group, because they do have a pecking order and one usually gets bullied.

[Ekklypce]

Trop mimi, à toi de trouver ta moitié la tite grenouille va pas piquer celle des autres, lol !!!

[panostsak]

ok...

[jsthgrt]

mine never faught yet/ kissed so there boaring

[chriscampyishere]

maby you got a female or just one sissy male!

[panostsak]

they are either very young or they are male and female...only males "kiss" each other..

[xXninetrayXx]

nice...how will they get in a 40 gal.

[panostsak]

Mine are in a 40 gal. But thats the minimum, which means double filtration and frequent water changes...

[xbeckieboox]

lol at the frog!Hes so jealous, i try to catch mine kissing but they just start smiling at the camera!
