Chocolate gouramis originate from Borneo, Malacca, the Malaysian Peninsula, and Sumatra. Mainly found in the blackwater peat swamps and adjacent streams of their range, they are also found in clear water areas that are tannin-stained a dark brown color by organic materials. They have a labyrinth organ that allows them to breathe atmospheric air to survive in oxygen-depleted water that might kill most other species.
